FAQs

The Georgian revival style emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, drawing inspiration from the classical proportions, elegance, and decorative motifs of the original George III period.

These items are typically crafted from sterling silver using traditional manufacturing methods such as spinning, piercing, and hand-chasing, often featuring threaded or bayonet-fitting pierced lids.

Authenticity is verified through clear hallmarks stamped on the metal, indicating the makers mark, the standard of silver, the assay office city, and a date letter corresponding to the year of manufacture.

A silver caster can be displayed on a sideboard, dining table centrepiece, or open shelving to introduce metallic texture, classical form, and historic character to a modern tablescape.

Antique silver should be cleaned periodically using a gentle, non-abrasive silver polish and a soft cloth, and stored in a low-humidity environment to prevent tarnishing and oxidation.
