FAQs

A vinaigrette is a small pocket container used during the Georgian era to hold a sponge soaked in aromatic vinegar, designed to mask unpleasant odours.

They were typically handcrafted from sterling silver, often featuring a parcel-gilt interior to prevent the acidic vinegar from corroding the metal, along with intricate pierced grilles.

Authenticity is verified by examining hallmarks for the makers mark, standard mark, town mark, and duty mark, alongside the quality of the hand-engraving and the internal gilt grill.

This small collectable can be displayed on a bookshelf, within a glass-fronted cabinet, or atop a dressing table as a focal point of historical interest.

Clean gently with a soft microfibre cloth to avoid removing the natural patina, and store in a dry environment away from direct sunlight.
