FAQs

A vinaigrette is a small, portable container used during the 18th and 19th centuries to hold a sponge soaked in aromatic vinegar, which was inhaled to combat unpleasant odours or prevent fainting.

These items are typically crafted from sterling silver with an interior gilding of gold wash, featuring intricately pierced and engraved grilles to allow the diffusion of scent.

Silver items should be kept in a stable environment away from high humidity and harsh chemicals, using minimal cleaning with a soft cloth to preserve the original patina and gilding.

Such decorative objects are typically displayed within a cabinet of curiosities, on a mantelpiece, or styled on a desk top as a focal point of historical interest.

Authenticity is verified by examining the maker marks, town marks, and standard silver hallmarks stamped on the interior surfaces, alongside the quality of the hand-engraving and hinge construction.
