Antique "Cockatoo" Claret Jug, gilded Bronze , moulded glass. England 1900s.

About the Item

Antique Victorian "Cockatoo" Claret Jug. England 1900s. The head and the feet are made of gilded Bronze. Coloured glass eyes. These very decorative and amusing glass carafes in the shape of an animal were very popular in Victorian Great Britain for upscale dining culture at the end of the 19th century. The expressive mischievous cockatoo is very well made and appears almost lifelike. Originally these claret jugs were used as wine carafes. The gilded Bronze head shows slight signs of use commensurate with age. The moulded glass is also in good condition. The decanter is not signed but was dated around 1900 by a renowned German Auction House.
