FAQs

Tea caddies originated in the 17th century when tea was an expensive, luxury commodity imported from Asia, requiring secure and airtight storage containers.

Authentic period caddies are typically crafted from hallmarked sterling silver, often featuring hand-hammered panels, cast decorative mounts, and fitted lids.

Authenticity is verified through official metal hallmarks indicating the maker, city of assay, and date letter, alongside characteristic period wear and construction methods.

These items can be displayed prominently on a sideboard, mantelpiece, or open shelving to introduce metallic texture and historical character to a room.

Preserve silver by dusting with a soft cloth, avoiding harsh abrasive polishes, and storing in a stable environment away from excessive humidity and direct sunlight.
