FAQs

Old Sheffield Plate is an early form of silver plating created by fusing a thin sheet of sterling silver to a thicker base of copper, primarily produced from the mid-18th century until the introduction of electroplating in the 1840s.

These items were constructed by fusing silver and copper through heat and pressure, often featuring hand-beaten bodies, applied cast silver borders, and soldered handles or feet.

Authentic pieces often reveal a faint reddish copper bleed-through along high points, edges, or wear areas where the outer silver layer has thinned over time.

They can be used as striking focal points on sideboards, open shelving, or dining tables to introduce textural contrast and historical depth to contemporary schemes.

Clean gently with non-abrasive silver polish and a soft cloth to avoid wearing through the thin silver layer, and store in a low-humidity environment.
