This auction includes a wide range of silverware from various periods and regions across the world.
Silver has always been relatively inexpensive compared to gold, and is considered a "second-rate" precious metal - especially relative to gold. This fact makes it an accessible investment horizon for the general population, especially currently, with the clouds of coronavirus hovering over the world producing panic and financial uncertainty. More and more people are tending to hold real assets that are relatively risk-free.
This auction offers a double opportunity - both to enjoy the beautiful silverware in and of itself, and also as a medium-term investment.
Silver today is in the range of $25 per ounce, which is a climb of 65% from the price just six months ago. Not only that, the price of silver peaked at $52 an ounce in 2011, which indicates the latent potential of its current price, in contrast to gold which is close to its all-time high.
Enjoy the auction!
