Hi, I’m Nan owner of Silver Magpies. I love antique and vintage silver for the table and bar, but aim to change it’s fussy, old-fashioned image.

We ought to make Every Day Best and enjoy what we have, instead we put things away for that special occasion. But ought of sight is out of mind, and so often we are too busy on the eve of an occasion to dig around in the attic for the good stuff. If your family isn’t worth your best who is?

Silver is timeless, comes is an amazing array of styles and designs, and fits seamlessly into our busy lives.

I made a mid-career switch to focus on my lifelong passion after a long and interesting academic and professional career focusing on energy and the environment.
