  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 27, 2024
    To tell silver from silver plating, try holding a strong magnet near the item. If the magnet is attracted to the piece, it is most likely silver-plated, as solid silver is unlikely to be magnetic. You can also check the hallmarks.

Explore a large selection of silver jewelry, tableware and decorative objects on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023

  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021

  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 26, 2021
    A tazza is a popular kind of plate — it means “cup” in Italian. Antique silver tazzas were common in the Georgian era. They are essentially dishes positioned atop a stem with a wide base.

    Taxco silver is the term for silver jewelry and decorative objects produced in a certain part of the world.

Apprentices traveled to Taxco to learn from him and then remained in the region, eventually making Taxco a major producer of artisan-crafted silver pieces.
