FAQs

Art Deco design emerged in the 1920s, characterised by geometric patterns, clean lines, stylised motifs, and an emphasis on modernity and industrial progress, moving away from the organic curves of the preceding Art Nouveau period.

These pieces typically feature a thin sheet of sterling silver over a wooden core, often backed with velvet or wood and supported by a hinged strut, secured with corner joints and traditional hallmarking.

Authenticity is verified through clear metal hallmarks indicating the assay office, silver purity, and date letter, alongside characteristic maker marks, traditional construction techniques, and natural silver oxidisation.

An antique silver frame introduces a polished metallic accent that complements minimalist mantels, console tables, or bookshelves, contrasting effectively against dark wood or textured neutral walls.

Silver frames should be cleaned sparingly with a specialised, non-abrasive silver cloth to maintain the patina, avoiding harsh liquid dips that can damage the underlying wooden core or velvet backing.
