William Bell’s mark appears on this cup, hallmarked Dublin in 1717 — early enough in the Georgian period that its plainer lines likely reflect the more architectural style silversmiths favoured before heavier ornament returned later in the century. At 622g and 14.5cm tall, it has genuine early-18th-century substance, a rare early Dublin-marked piece rather than a common London one.

A treated silver polishing cloth is usually enough for light tarnish; for heavier tarnish use a silver foam or cream, rinse with warm water and dry thoroughly. Avoid silver dip for hollow pieces. Store wrapped in acid-free tissue or a tarnish-proof bag, and keep rubber bands away from silver.
