FAQs

Sugar casters, also known as sugar dredgers, emerged in the late 17th century as refined white sugar became more accessible for seasoning desserts and pastries at the dining table.

Authentic pieces are typically crafted from sterling silver using traditional silversmithing techniques such as spinning, casting, and hand-piercing for the intricate fretwork on the lid.

Authenticity is verified by examining hallmarks stamped on the body and lid, which indicate the assay office, date letter, makers mark, and silver standard.

This piece can be displayed on a sideboard, dining table centrepiece, or open shelving to introduce metallic texture and historic character to a room.

Silver should be cleaned infrequently using a specialised non-abrasive polish and a soft cloth, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can strip the natural oxidisation and hallmarks.
