    The five standard marks on British silver are the walking lion, the standing lion, the thistle, the crown harp and the image of Britannia. Pieces bearing the walking lion originate from England, while the standing lion represents Glasgow. The thistle is the sign of Edinburgh silver, and the crown harp is reserved for sterling silver from Dublin. If a piece bears the Britannia symbol, it means it is Britannia standard silver, which must be at least 95.84% pure silver. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of British silver wares.
