Cocktail sticks and picks gained significant popularity during the early 20th century, particularly alongside the rise of the cocktail culture in the 1920s and 1930s, when elaborate home entertaining became fashionable.

These sets are typically crafted from sterling silver, often featuring hallmarks indicating the assay office, maker, and year of production, and are frequently housed in fitted presentation boxes lined with velvet or satin.

Authenticity is verified by locating official metal hallmarks stamped directly onto the silver shafts or handles, which denote the purity of the silver, the makers mark, and the assay office responsible for testing.

Vintage silver barware can be displayed on a dedicated bar cart, a drinks cabinet, or a side table to add a touch of period sophistication and metallic sheen to contemporary living spaces.

Antique silver should be cleaned gently using a specialised non-abrasive silver cloth or polish to maintain the metals lustre without wearing away fine details or historical hallmarks, and stored in dry conditions.
