FAQs

A vinaigrette is a small pocket-sized container used during the 18th and 19th centuries to hold a sponge soaked in aromatic vinegar, designed to mask unpleasant odours.

These items are crafted predominantly from sterling silver, often featuring gilt interiors to prevent corrosion from the acidic vinegar, and occasionally housed in leather or velvet-lined cases.

Authentic pieces usually bear clear hallmarks indicating the maker, assay office, and year of manufacture, alongside an internal pierced grille that distinguishes them from standard snuff boxes.

This piece can be displayed on a mantelpiece, inside a glass-fronted cabinet, or on a desk as part of a curated collection of small historical curiosities.

Silver should be cleaned infrequently using a soft microfibre cloth and specialized silver polish, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can damage delicate engravings and internal gilding.
