Silver animals have been for a wide variety of purposes for over 200 years, with uses ranging from game birds as table decorations, to novelty pepper mustard and pepper pots, to heavy quality stirrup cups and other forms of drinking vessels. In recent years the demand for them has increased, and alongside our highly crafted SILVER ANIMALS are now the biggest growing market in our business. Many of the processes used to cast the vintage and antique silver animals have continued to the present day, with original patterns tooling and techniques the only way to recreate the artistry of silversmiths of the 19th Century.
