A silver claret jug is a wine jug made of glass and silver for claret, which is the British name for French red Bordeaux wine. From the introduction of claret to Britain in 1663 specific vessels soon began to be designed to contain the wine and let it "breathe" before consumption. We have here a stunning 1880 gothic revival silver and blown glass decanter set which includes 1 decanter and 4 drinking goblets. It was made in Germany with exquisite detail!! The decanter's handle boasts a female figure and the metal work throughout boasts scrollwork, foliage, and ornate designs. The decanter's top is solid metal so you will never have a damaged cork and the hand blown glass is a beautiful deep shade of olive green. The 4 matching goblets have ornate metal bases and blown glass top portions that remove for easy cleaning. A stunning piece of history and usable drink ware art for your home! Cheers!
Measurements:
Decanter (x1) - 12 1/2" H x 8 1/2" W
