FAQs

Silver christening sets have traditionally been given as heirloom gifts to commemorate a baptism or birth, symbolising future prosperity and good fortune for the child.

Authentic period sets are predominantly crafted from sterling silver, often featuring gilt interiors on bowls and fitted presentation cases lined with silk or velvet.

Hallmarks are small stamped symbols usually indicating the makers mark, the standard of silver purity, the assay office, and the date letter denoting the year of manufacture.

Such cased items can be displayed closed on a bookshelf or open within a glass-fronted cabinet to highlight the interior lining and craftsmanship while protecting the metal from tarnish.

Antique silver should be cleaned sparingly using a non-abrasive specialist silver polish and a soft cloth, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can strip away desirable oxidisation and wear.
