A Grand Antique Bohemian Liqueur Glass Set with Decanter, Glasses & Tray c1900 (Code 9129)
Description
AA grand Bohemian liqueur set dating around 1900. A very opulent looking set combining burnished and polished gold with white and turquoise enamel jewelling. The decanter is tall and elegant and the gold scales on the clear section are very eye catching. The set comes with 5 matching glasses and a tray.
It is clearly a quality item and would have been a prestige set in its day. The small size capacity of the glasses would make them suitable for strong liqueurs, they are too small to function practically as wine glasses.
A fine set which certainly will not go un-noticed.
Condition
Some wear to the gilt as you would expect, but still largely in tact. Most of rubbing is to the handling points such as the decanter handle, glasses stems etc as you would expect. One of the glasses has an indented ridge line to the foot topside (from production), this shows as a dark ungilded line near the stem join but is not a crack or damage - it is shown in close up for you. Some minor water marking inside the decanter. Some period related wear as you would expect.
