Antique silver can be a good investment. At minimum silver items retain their precious metal value but there is a strong market for noted-makers and those items with unusual hallmarks.

The auction price for each item will be influenced by many factors including the spot price, any incorporated elements such as stones and the historic or cultural relevance of the piece. Therefore some items will sell for below the Silver spot price, while others will exceed it. Our expert staff are on hand to offer advice about the likely sale price for your Silver.

A knowledge of silver hallmarks is vitally important when identifying and valuing silver. Our experts use specialist equipment and their knowledge of historic hallmarks to assess your silver.

Silver tea sets from noted designers do sell well at auction. The design, condition, completeness and hallmarks can also impact the value. Request a valuation today to find out more.
