FAQs

Novelty silver pin cushions gained immense popularity during the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, produced extensively by silversmiths in Birmingham and Chester as decorative dressing table accessories and collector pieces.

These pieces were typically crafted using sterling silver, often shaped via metal casting or stamping, and fitted with an upholstered insert made from silk, velvet, or plush fabric to hold needles securely.

Authentic pieces generally feature clear British hallmarks indicating the assay office, silver standard (925 sterling), and date letter, alongside maker marks from renowned silversmiths such as Sampson Mordan or Adie & Lovekin.

Small antique silver pieces function effectively as focal points on bookshelves, mantelpieces, or side tables, adding a layer of historical contrast and metallic sheen to contemporary spaces.

Antique silver should be cleaned sparingly with a non-abrasive silver cloth to preserve the natural patination, whilst velvet inserts must be kept dry and protected from direct sunlight to prevent fading and fiber degradation.
