We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Salt spoons were designed during periods prior to modern free-flowing table salt, when salt was kept in open cellars or tubs and required a dedicated small spoon to prevent moisture and skin oils from corrupting the contents.

Edwardian salt spoons were predominantly crafted from sterling silver, electroplated nickel silver, or natural materials like mother of pearl and horn, frequently featuring chased shell bowls and spiralled handles.

Authentic British pieces carry stamped hallmarks including an assay office mark, the lion passant for sterling silver, a specific date letter, and a registered makers mark.

These small silver items can be paired with open salt cellars on dining tables, displayed in glass-fronted cabinets, or repurposed on entertaining boards for serving dry spices and condiments.

Silver spoons should be washed in warm water immediately after contact with salt to prevent pitting, dried thoroughly, and polished periodically using a specialized silver cloth.
