Make Connections With Our Silver Collection
Our silver collection has been chosen for the connections each piece is capable of making. We choose varied heritage silver artworks that includes bracelets, salvers, and boxes, among other types, based on their artistic qualities.
What's more, to help collectors make meaningful connections with our global collection, we contextualize the narratives behind the works so that buyers can more readily understand their background and original purpose. As such, we offer much more than a straightforward silver collection because all of the pieces have something to say.
How to Maintain Antique Silver Artworks
When it comes to antique silver artworks, you will need to know how to look after the items you choose. At Canvas & Bronze, we provide specific advice for individual antique sliver artworks because no two pieces should be dealt with in exactly the same way.
Like other metal pieces, such as our extensive collection of copper artworks, antique silver typically only needs to be dusted to prevent a build up of grime. You should polish heritage silver as little as possible and only do so to remove obvious signs of tarnishing. Over-polishing can wear down the intricate work that is at the heart of many antique silver artworks. When not on display, consider placing collectible silver art in airtight, tarnish-resistant bags to help preserve their unique qualities.
