Write for us

We welcome thoughtful pitches about silver objects and the material culture around them. Proposals should start with a clear question or object, show why it will interest a general reader, and offer a distinct angle rather than a broad survey.

Subjects we welcome

Ideas may explore a form, a making method, a surface, a use, a custom or the way an object is kept and remembered. We are interested in specific, well-bounded subjects that can be explained without assuming specialist knowledge. A good pitch makes clear what the reader will understand or notice by the end.

What to send

Use the Contact page to send a short proposal with a working title, the central question, the planned approach and a few lines about why you are suited to write it. Mention any sources or images you expect to use and flag uncertainty or limitations. Please send a proposal rather than an unsolicited full article.

The editorial process

We consider pitches for relevance, clarity, originality and fit with the publication. A proposal is not a promise of publication, and an accepted piece may need edits for accuracy, structure, tone or length. We discuss material changes with the contributor and make no claim that a pitch will be accepted on a set timetable.
