TO THE SILVER DEALER WEBSITE
COLLECTORS
SILVER AT DEALERS PRICES
BACKGROUND.
My interest in Antique Silver began as a teenager. I used
to attend the local Auction Houses and became impressed with
the understanding that the Silver Dealers had for objects
and prices. It was the search for this knowledge of Antique
Silver and the wish to learn the value of silver items that
drove me to become an Antique Silver Dealer.
EXPERIENCE.
I have spent the last 40 years searching for this knowledge
and it has been an exciting and exhilarating experience. The
cut and thrust of the Antique Silver Auctions; rubbing shoulders
with several generations of Antique Silver Dealers. I now
feel a bit like the Antique Silver Dealers who first impressed
me as a teenager. Over the last 15 years I have been selling
mainly to Antique Silver Dealers. This experience has taught
me the importance of understanding the value of a piece of
silver. Many of the items I have sold, have been exhibited
at major Antique Fairs throughout the Country.
FUTURE.
From this Web Site I can offer items of Antique Silver to
Collectors and Antique Silver Dealers alike. All prospective
customers will be treated in the same way.
STOCK.
The selection of items in the Gallery will include: Georgian
Sterling Silver, early Britannia Silver, Vinaigrettes, Snuff
Boxes, Nutmeg Graters. Items of Antique Silver will be mainly
from the 1700s, with some Collectors Silver from the 1800s.
Occasionally I will include Silver from the Art & Crafts
period. From time to time I will include Scottish Silver,
Irish Silver and pieces by Hester Bateman, Paul Storr, Nathaniel
Mills and other well known makers.
CONDITION.
The majority of items will have been in use for several hundred
years. These would be handled by servants, taken in and out
of cupboards, washed, polished. Inevitably there will be evidence
of use but every attempt will be made to stock items in as
fine condition as possible. Any defects will be
clearly stated.
SATISFACTION.
I will make every attempt to photograph and describe items
as accurately as possible but an omission or an error may
occur. However, all items carry a no quibble, money back guarantee.
If, for any reason, you are not satisfied with your purchase,
simply return it to me for a full refund. Please read the
sections on Guarantee, Prices, Payment, Shipping.
