FAQs

Decanter labels, originally termed bottle tickets, emerged in Great Britain during the 1730s. They were created to identify spirits, wines, and fortified wines stored in clear glass or crystal decanters, which lacked original commercial packaging labels.

Historic decanter labels were predominantly crafted from sterling silver, silver plate, and Sheffield plate. Finer examples also utilised mother-of-pearl, enamel, bone, or gold, often featuring chased or repousse decorative borders.

Authentic pieces display period-appropriate craftsmanship, such as die-stamped or hand-engraved lettering, soldered wire chain loops, and makers marks or electroplate stampings on the reverse. Wear to electroplating, exposing base nickel or copper brass underneath, also indicates genuine age.

An antique silver label can be suspended around the neck of a clear crystal decanter displayed on a bar cart, sideboard, or tray. Grouping multiple labelled decanters together creates a textured, curated focal point in contemporary dining rooms or home bars.

Clean silver plate gently using a soft, non-abrasive cloth and mild silver polish to avoid stripping the thin surface layer. Avoid harsh dipping chemicals, dry thoroughly after washing, and store away from excessive humidity to minimize oxidisation and tarnish.
