Napkin ring 925 silver San Marco

The "San Marco" napkin ring, made from 925 sterling silver, is a simply polished table accessory with a delicate, rope-like twisted edge that gives the otherwise unadorned ring its Venetian-inspired name. It is suitable for festive occasions such as a child's birth, christening, or second birthday, as well as a refined adult dining piece – San Marco focuses on quiet elegance rather than a motif.

Material and Workmanship

A finely twisted rope structure runs along both edges of the ring, reminiscent of classic Venetian silversmith work – hence the name San Marco. The central surface remains smooth and highly polished, allowing the twisted edge to stand out as the sole, yet distinctive, design element. The 925 sterling silver bears a hallmark as proof of its silver content and is designed for long-lasting use at the table.

Use and Occasions

San Marco is suitable for festive occasions such as christenings, births, or a child's second birthday, but also for weddings, anniversaries, or sophisticated Sunday dinners among adults. Since there is no children's motif, the ring can be used as both a baby and adult gift and pairs well with existing, classically designed sterling silver flatware.

Engraving and SilberVerse Card

The smooth central surface between the twisted edges offers ample space for an engraving upon request – names, initials, or a date can be coordinated with the manufacturer. Upon request, we also include a personalized SilberVerse card in photo format (15 × 10 cm landscape) – individually designed, suitable for the occasion, and currently free of charge, also available without engraving.

Care

A soft cloth is sufficient to remove fingerprints from the smooth surface. The twisted rope edge requires a little more care when polishing to ensure no cleaning agent settles in the delicate twists – a soft silver polishing cloth is usually sufficient. Harsh cleaners or abrasive sponges should be avoided.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where does the name San Marco come from?

It refers to the twisted rope edge, which is reminiscent of Venetian silversmith work – the ring itself is made in Italy and has no applied motif.

Is the ring intended more for children or adults?

Both are possible – without a children's motif, San Marco fits both baby and christening gift selections as well as classic adult sterling silver flatware.

How does San Marco differ from other smooth rings in the assortment?

The twisted rope edge is the defining detail – it distinguishes San Marco from purely smooth models like the Cardinale or rings with a corrugated edge like "Englisch."
