WELCOME 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.
