Break Out the Silver

If there is one time of year when it is appropriate to take out the good silver, it’s during the holidays. The season is already steeped in tradition, and what better way to hark back to favorite family memories than with your most prized heirlooms? Glowing flatware and shiny teapots sit on a dainty tea tray to form a classic Christmas vignette at the home of designer Christopher Hyland, aka Mr. Christmas. And it’s not too late to plan for next year’s Christmas. Keep that silver shiny and tarnish-free by keeping it available to use throughout the entire year. It’s when silver sits dormant, that it starts to patina.
