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.

Decanter labels, also known as bottle tickets, originated in the 18th century to identify spirits and wines stored in unmarked glass decanters. Georgian silversmiths crafted these functional accessories with intricate hand-engraving and decorative pierced borders.

These items were primarily forged from sterling silver, Sheffield plate, or enamel, featuring hand-engraved lettering and decorative crests. They were suspended from fine belcher or curb link chains designed to drape around decanter necks.

Authenticity is confirmed by inspecting hallmarks stamped on the front or reverse, including makers initials, purity marks, duty marks, and date letters. Genuine pieces display period-appropriate hand-chased or hand-engraved details.

An antique silver decanter label can be draped around a crystal decanter on a bar cart, displayed inside a shadow box frame, or arranged as part of a classic sideboard display.

Clean silver labels using a soft cloth and a gentle silver polish formulated for antiques, avoiding harsh chemicals that may wear down fine engraving. Store in anti-tarnish cloth bags away from high humidity to prevent oxidisation.
