What counts as a table silver piece?

Table silver includes any functional or decorative object destined for the dining table, desk, or dressing room surface. Items range from large serving spoons and cruet sets to desktop boxes, bells, and cigar lighters.

How do I clean antique silver?

Maintenance requires gentle washing with mild soap and warm water, followed by drying with a soft cloth. Harsh chemical dips should be avoided to preserve the natural patina and delicate details of the chasing.

Are hallmarks always present?

British pieces generally feature a standard set of stamps identifying the maker, assay office, and date letter. Foreign imports often carry surrogate sponsor marks or distinct national control stamps depending on their origin.

Can I use these items daily?

Solid silver is durable enough for regular use, provided it is handled with care and cleaned properly. Items with delicate enamel or glass inserts require more caution during handling and storage.
