Are you looking to find out what your silver tea service is worth, and how best to sell it? At Mark Littler Ltd we can help you understand what affects the value of your silver tea service, provide you with a valuation, and advise on how best to sell it.
Silver tea services have been made since the late 18th century, as before this each piece would have their own designs and trends. Silver tea services were originally designed for the upper classes of society and whilst they are not often used for their original purpose, silver tea services are collected for their historical and decorative appeal.
The value of a silver tea service is affected by various factors including the maker, age, condition and rarity. The maker can have a significant impact on the value, as pieces made by well-known silversmiths such as Paul Storr or Georg Jensen can command much higher prices than those made by lesser known makers. Age also plays a role, with older pieces being more desirable and therefore having a higher value.
Condition is another important factor to consider when determining the value of a silver tea service. Any damage or repairs can greatly decrease its worth, whereas a well-preserved piece in excellent condition will be more valuable. Rarity also affects the value, with unique or limited edition pieces being highly sought after by collectors.
Clearly the condition of your tea service will have an impact on the value.
Dents, bruises and splits are all obvious forms of damage that will impact the value.
Quite often on tea service pieces you may find that a coat of arms has been removed which can be hard to spot but will also have a big impact on the value.
Do not worry about cleaning your tea service. In some cases you can reduce the value of a tea service by cleaning it.
We have been applying hallmarks to silver since the 14th century and as such they are the oldest form of consumer protection in the world.
Western tea services have been made from around the 18th Century and the earlier pieces often command a higher price.
However, the older the tea service, the more likely that there will have been repairs over the years. As such it is a combination of both the age and the condition that will have a real impact on the value of your tea service.
The weight of your tea service will help us to understand the quality of your silver. But how?
Silversmiths like Paul Storr produced many items to the same design, but depending on the wealth of their client they would adjust the amount of silver that they would use for the commission.
As such a tea service may be 500g or it might be 1,300g. Without being able to handle your items in person, providing the weight will give us a very good idea of the gauge of the silver used and thus we will be able to give you a very good idea of the value.
