FAQs

Victorian sterling silver is characterised by intricate ornamentation, heavy gauges of metal, and adherence to traditional hallmarking standards regulated by the British assay offices.

These pieces are typically crafted from solid sterling silver (925 standard), often utilising techniques such as hand-engraving, piercing, casting, and traditional silversmithing forging methods.

Authenticity is verified through clear hallmarks stamped into the metal, which typically include a makers mark, a standard mark (such as a lion passant for sterling), a city assay mark, and a date letter.

Antique silver pieces add a layer of historic texture when displayed in silver display cabinets, utilised on sideboards, or incorporated into contemporary table settings for formal dining.

Antique silver should be cleaned sparingly using non-abrasive silver polishes and soft cloths, and stored in tarnish-resistant environments away from direct moisture and humidity.
