Frequently Asked Questions
Making silver collecting simple, smart and rewarding
The smart way to collect
Each monthly susbscription box is hand selected by a trained valuer, specifically chosen to match your collecting habits and tastes.
Every piece of silver comes with it's own certificate of authenticity
What types of silver pieces will I receive?
Your membership tier determines the scale and rarity of items you’ll receive:
-
Foundation Tier – Smaller curios such as vesta cases, vinaigrettes, snuff boxes, caddy spoons, or sovereign holders.
-
Connoisseur Tier – Higher-quality, more intricate items, such as tea caddies, scent bottles, compacts, or decorative novelties.
-
Prestige Tier – Exceptional, museum-quality acquisitions from top makers, fully bespoke and customised to your specific requirements.
How do you personalise each box?
Upon joining, you’ll complete a Collector Profile — a short set of questions about your interests, style, and current collection. Our specialists use this to source items that complement your preferences. In some cases, we may follow up with a call to refine your profile further, ensuring a highly personalised service.
What’s included in each box?
Every delivery is designed to delight, educate, and preserve. Inside you’ll find:
-
At least one antique silver piece, tailored to your Collector Profile.
-
A Certificate of Authenticity, detailing maker, date, and hallmark.
-
Elegant presentation packaging, suitable for both safe storage and gifting.
-
Occasional extras — such as silver care cloths, anti-tarnish tabs, or redeemable upgrade codes.
Each box is more than a delivery — it’s an experience in silver collecting.
Are the pieces authentic?
Yes. Every item is carefully vetted by our experts and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity issued by Shropshire Silver, confirming its maker, date, and hallmark.
When will I receive my first box?
Your first box is typically dispatched within 10–14 days of completing your Collector Profile. Subsequent boxes are shipped monthly, with payments renewing on the 5th of each month.
How do I get the best value from my membership?
Memberships can be purchased in 1, 3, or 6-month terms. The longer the term, the greater the savings. At the end of your chosen period, your membership will automatically renew unless cancelled.
Can I gift a membership?
Yes. The Wrekin Collection makes a truly unique and thoughtful gift. Memberships can be purchased on behalf of someone else, with the option to include a personalised message in the first delivery.
What if something in my box isn’t right for me?
While we pride ourselves on tailoring each piece, collecting is personal. If something doesn’t feel like a good fit, please get in touch. Every six months of membership includes one complimentary exchange (standard exchange fee £19.99 thereafter)
How do you source your silver?
We work with a trusted network of antique dealers, private collectors, and leading UK auction houses. Each item is assessed for authenticity, condition, and desirability before being selected for The Wrekin Collection
