Description
A seven piece liqueur or spirit set comprising a tall decanter with a matching stopper and six small footed glasses. The set is crafted from hand-blown, smoked olive-green glass. The exterior is decorated with an intricate silver overlay, also known as silver deposit, featuring a central motif of a woman in nineteenth-century dress holding a fan. This central figure is framed by ornate foliate scrollwork, lattice patterns, and floral flourishes. The decanter features a waisted form with a flared rim and a matching glass ball stopper. The six glasses are of a matching footed design. Silver-toned bands finish the rims and bases of all components. This style of glassware is characteristic of mid-twentieth-century Venetian or Murano production.
Decanter height: approximately 37 cm.
Condition report:
The set appears in good vintage condition. There is visible tarnish and oxidation to the silver overlay across all pieces, which is characteristic of age for this decorative technique. One glass shows more pronounced wear and loss to the silvering compared to the others. No chips, cracks, or significant damage to the glass is visible.
