How do I clean silver plate?

Clean silver plate gently using a soft cloth and a specialised non-abrasive silver cleaner designed to protect the thin surface layer from wear. Avoid harsh scrubbing or chemical dips that can strip the plating and expose the base metal underneath.

Are Elkington items always marked?

Most pieces carry specific stamps or maker marks identifying the firm alongside date letters or registry marks. Some items may show signs of wear near the stamp due to decades of polishing.

How do I date an Elkington piece?

Dating relies upon official Birmingham assay office letter marks stamped directly onto sterling silver items. Plated goods often use a system of numerical codes or symbols stamped near the maker name to indicate the year of production.
