History: Silvering, or coating a base metal with a layer of silver, has a history stretching back centuries, with various methods used over time. While the concept of applying silver to other materials has ancient roots, the development of electroplating, a process that revolutionized silvering, occurred in the 19th century.

The Victorian era in British history refers to the period of Queen Victoria's reign, from June 20, 1837, to January 22, 1901.
