FAQs

A decanter label, historically known as a bottle ticket, is a small silver plaque suspended by a chain around the neck of a glass decanter to identify fortified wines or spirits such as Madeira, Port, or Sherry.

Traditional decanter labels were crafted from sterling silver using metalworking techniques such as hand-engraving, die-stamping, and repousse, complete with soldered jump rings and link suspension chains.

Authentic Georgian examples feature official hallmarks, including a makers mark, lion passant for sterling silver, date letter, and sovereign head duty mark, alongside sharp hand-engraved lettering.

These silver items can be styled by draping them over glass decanters on a drinks trolley, displaying them in framed shadow boxes, or incorporating them into a curated dining sideboard arrangement.

Clean the silver using a soft microfibre cloth and a specialist silver polishing cream, taking care around delicate chain links and avoiding harsh abrasive cleaners that could erode hand-engraved text.
