FAQs

Guilloche is a decorative technique where a precise, intricate pattern is mechanically engraved into a metal surface, which is then covered with a translucent layer of coloured enamel to reveal the design underneath.

These items typically combine sterling silver rims and lids, lead crystal or cut glass bases, and vitreous enamel coloured with metallic oxides.

Authenticity is verified by examining the hallmarks stamped on the silver rim or mount, which indicate the assay office, makers mark, and date letter, alongside assessing the hand-finished quality of the enamel.

Place the piece on a mirrored tray, marble countertop, or dressing table surface to reflect light and add a touch of period colour and metallic texture to contemporary spaces.

Clean the silver gently with a specialist non-abrasive silver cloth, avoiding direct contact with the enamel, and keep the piece away from prolonged direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
