It has a blemish on the inside of the lid (see image). Not sure if it was original or repaired. The porcelain lining is intact and does not leak. The holes on the bottom are for airing out the pitcher after rising and not defects. The stand bottom is stamped Standard Silver Company of Toronto. Quadruple Plated 1135". The bottom stamp on the pitcher states it was manufactured and guaranteed by the "Standard Silver Company of Toronto Special Hard White Metal 1135" made between 1893 - 1912. The slop cup is stamped " Wallace 992" indicating it is after 1956. Highly prized in middle-class homes in the early 20th Century, these decanters were kept polished and bright causing wear on the silver plate. This piece has been recently re-plated with sterling silver by Baroque Silversmith in Skokie, IL. The set comes with a stand, pitcher, and slop cup. Pitcher: H=11 in. W=10 in. D=11 in. Weighs 8 lbs. Holds 80 fluid oz. Holder: H=23.5 in W=10 in D=11.5 in. Weighs 4 lbs. Slop Cup: H=4.5 in. W=3.5 in. Total weight 13 lbs. less

Serve any beverage of your choice with elegance with this silver-plated decanter beverage pitcher jug drink cask by the Standard Silver Company of Toronto Canada. The ten-cup set comes with a stand, pitcher, and slop cup. The inside has a porcelain lining for hot or cold beverages.
In 1893, the Standard Silver Company of Toronto started as the successor to the Acme Silver Company. But in 1912, they became part of the International Silver Company headquartered in Meriden, Conn. in the USA. Thus made sometime between 1893 - 1912.
The slop cup for spills and leavings is from Wallace Silversmith from Wallington, CT, USA, successors to Wallace and Sons also in Wallington, CT. It is not original to the set but fits the stand well. It is stamped " Wallace 992" indicating it is after 1956. The pitcher is designed to simulate a barrel. The rococo trim on the stands and handle adds traditional old-world elegance and the craftsmanship is apparent. This exquisite beverage pitcher set will elevate any table setting, while elegantly servicing hot or cold drinks. Afterward, it makes a decorative accent wherever it is stored.
