About the Item

A truly exceptional French silver (.950 fine) & art glass wine ewer, showing a flattened ovoid body with a partial matte surface decorated with etched thistle motifs highlighted in gilt detail, the remaining area left clear and decorated with textured motifs of the cross of Lorraine outlined in gilt. The neck fitted with a silver collar & spout with a hinged cover affixed to a foliate molded handle, all bearing 1st standard silver marks (.950 fine) and makers marks. The glass body is most certainly by Daum, however the gilt signature has apparently been rubbed. In fine overall condition, and priced competitively in comparison to similar examples in the marketplace, which are very few if any.
