FAQs

Decanter labels, historically known as bottle tickets, originated in the 18th century to identify spirits stored inside opaque glass or silver vessels. They evolved from plain cut-out metal shapes to decorative engraved tags suspended by fine chains.

Traditional bottle tickets were produced using sterling silver, silver plate, mother-of-pearl, enamel, and pewter. Silver examples frequently featured hand-engraved lettering, stamped borders, and matching chain suspensions.

Authentic silver examples display official hallmarks or purity stamps indicating metal content and maker identification. Evaluation of weight, hand-engraved typography, and age-appropriate surface wear also helps verify era.

A silver decanter label can be draped around a crystal decanter on a bar cart, arranged inside a framed shadow box display, or placed alongside antique barware on a sideboard.

Dust gently with a soft microfibre cloth and polish using a specialised silver foam when oxidation appears. Avoid chemical dip cleansers that can strip dark accent oxidation from fine engraved lettering.
