England set the original standard for quality control of silver items, with its establishment in the 1300s of a strict hallmarking system. Craftsmen would take their products to a local assay office, where it would be stamped to indicate purity level and the date and location where it was made. Over the centuries, a wide variety of English silver has been produced.
