FAQs

Silver christening mugs gained immense popularity during the Victorian and Edwardian eras as traditional gifts to celebrate the birth or baptism of a child, often kept as lifelong heirlooms.

These items are typically crafted from sterling silver, often shaped using spinning or hammering techniques over a mould, with applied handles and polished interior gilding, known as wash-gilt.

Authenticity is verified through clear hallmarks stamped directly onto the metal, indicating the assay office, the makers mark, the standard mark for sterling silver, and a date letter corresponding to the year of manufacture.

An antique silver mug can be displayed on a bookshelf or mantelpiece as a decorative object, or repurposed functionally to hold items like fountain pens on a desk.

Antique silver should be cleaned sparingly using a specialized non-abrasive silver cloth to preserve the patina, avoiding harsh chemical dips, and stored in a tarnish-resistant environment.
