I’m asked about silver polish a lot. Other than Silvo which is also a favorite (waiting on a new order or is show the can) Goddards is the ONLY polish I’ve used for 40 years. Period and I’ve tried them all! If a company has been in business as long as most of these antique silver pieces are old (established in 1839)then good enough for me!

The before and after - it’s a rainy day so perfect to catch up on polishing which quite honestly I enjoy. These are a lovely pair of English Thomas Blakemore silverplate candlesticks. If not familiar with this company - started in 1847 and still manufactures today. High quality metalwares. These heavy silverplate candlesticks date from the 1970s and are lovely reproductions of 19th c ones!

I’m all about repurposing antiques - first you have a quality made product - second - beautiful is beautiful and third - looking very clever is nice as well! These cocktail forks - I guess it is elegant to have but not used on a regular basis (unless you have a retinue of staff maybe) thus repurpose - make pickles? Tie one on the jar of your treasured recipe. Or buy a jar of cornichons (Trader Joes of course) and tie a fork on it! If you have a really special friend add some pate and toasted French bread slices - that’s my kind of gift!!! All silverplate - the small ones are Swedish.

Sugar anyone??? From the sterling Dutch sugar scoop to the ornate handled sugar nips to the elegant sugar sifter …..tea time was an elegant affair and sugar was certainly a valuable commodity to warrant such lovely implements- I helped a client several years ago with a shadow box display of her gorgeous coin silver sugar tongs - wish I had taken a picture - such lovely items become a history lesson as well as a decorative item!

Ok people - - since that new “rug rat” has come into our peaceful home a certain human has been neglecting getting items ready for sale which means my kibble bowl being full is in jeopardy- guess I’m just going to have to take matters into my paws and get pricing!
