How do I clean tarnished solid silver teaspoons?

Clean tarnished silver gently using a specialised silver cloth or mild polish formulated for precious metals. Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners that can wear away fine engraving or hallmarks. Store clean spoons in dry conditions away from direct sunlight, ideally within fitted cases lined with fabric to slow down the natural oxidation process.

Can I use antique silver spoons every day?

Antique silver spoons are durable enough for daily use provided they are washed by hand in warm soapy water rather than placed in an automatic dishwasher. Hand washing protects delicate surface details and prevents harsh detergents from damaging the metal. Using them regularly helps prevent tarnish accumulation, as the friction of handling keeps the high points of the silver bright and clean.

What do the hallmarks on these spoons mean?

Hallmarks stamped into the metal indicate the assay office, the standard of silver purity, and the year the piece was made. British pieces commonly show a walking lion for sterling silver alongside town marks and date letters. Maker's marks appear alongside these official stamps, showing the initials or full name of the silversmith or firm responsible for crafting the spoon.
