Unlike the simpler version, the gilding here is not just a narrow edge, but a continuous surface: if you look inside the ring, the interior is completely gilded, while the floral niello ornament runs across the outside of the ring with its usual delicacy. This interplay of dark pattern on the outside and warm gold on the inside makes the set a slightly more festive version of the motif. The included napkins pick up on the floral ornament in gold-colored embroidery and continue the color accent on the table.

Material and workmanship

The ring body consists of solid 925 sterling silver. The floral ornament is hand-engraved into the surface and filled with niello—a dark alloy that bonds chemically and physically with the silver instead of just being applied to the top. The gilding is located on both the upper and lower edges as well as inside the ring, thus creating a clear contrast between the dark pattern and the golden surface. This combination of hand engraving, niello inlay, and gilding requires several work steps before the pattern and polish reach their final definition.

Use and occasions

With its stronger gold effect, this set is particularly suitable for festive occasions such as Christmas, a milestone anniversary, or a dinner where the table is meant to be dressed up. The duo is also a great gift for a wedding or for someone who appreciates gold accents in silver. Because two rings and two napkins are included, the set can be used immediately for a couple—without needing to purchase anything else.

Care

Clean the napkin rings exclusively by hand with a mild detergent and then dry them with a soft cloth so that the gilded surfaces do not look dull due to water spots. A silver polishing cloth is suitable for refreshing the shine between uses—do not scrub the niello filling, but only treat the smooth silver and gold surface. Wash the fabric napkins gently so that the gold-colored embroidery retains its shape.

Frequently asked questions

Is it possible to engrave the napkin rings?

Yes, after checking, an engraving can be done. Simply add the flat fee for the engraving service to your cart; after your order, we will carefully choose the surface and discuss the wording together with you. If an engraving is not possible, you will get the flat fee back. If both rings are to be engraved, one flat fee per ring usually applies.

What distinguishes this set from the version without continuous gilding?

In this set, the gilding is much more prominent—it is visible not only on the edge, but also on the inside of the ring. Anyone who prefers a more subtle gold effect can also find versions with a narrower gilded edge in our range.

Are plates included in the set?

This set includes the two napkin rings and two matching fabric napkins with gold-colored embroidery. Matching plates and other tableware can be found separately in our silver range.
