Not mine, writes Martyn Downer, but the words of respected US publication The Magazine Antiques. The article praises myfamilysilver.com as “a smart business model for antiques dealers” and “the destination for all things silver”.

“It also hosts a charming and informative blog written by John Culme, the noted silver specialist and author whose work includes the indispensable The Directory of Gold and Silversmiths, 1838-1914 (1987). Myfamilysilver.com is a welcome addition to the online world of antiques that makes this venerable material accessible to old and new collectors alike.” Read more here.
