Frequently asked questions and answers

Solid silver or plated, what am I looking at?

Solid silver carries fineness marks like 925 or Sterling, plated ware codes like EPNS or a number such as 90. Both have their place; we name it clearly for every piece.

How do I set a table with silver?

A large tray as the centre, bowls for bread and fruit, plus deliberately mixed pieces from different eras. Silver works best with linen and plain porcelain.

Can silver be in contact with food?

Yes, silver is food-safe and even mildly antibacterial. Only sulphurous foods like eggs make it tarnish faster; just wash and dry it promptly afterwards.

How do I store silver so it does not tarnish?

Dry, as airtight as possible and away from rubber. Anti-tarnish bags or a treated cloth clearly extend the time between polishing rounds.

Are these vintage pieces or simply used silver trays and bowls?

Both terms apply: vintage describes age and design language, used describes the history. How old a piece is and its condition is always stated with the item.

How do I sell silver trays and bowls through 2nd home?

Yes. On the Sell page you describe your piece with photos, we check it and come back with an assessment and the next steps.

How do you ship silver trays and bowls?

Carefully packed by parcel service, delicate pieces with extra padding. The shipping price is shown on the product page before you order.

Can I see a piece in person before buying?
