Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 1900s:
Stylised geometric handle: early twentieth-century design influenced by the Arts and Crafts movement.

This Edwardian claret jug dates to circa 1900 and combines silver-plate with clear cut crystal glass. The vessel comprises a conical glass body decorated with a wheel-cut diamond pattern, a star-cut base, and a hinged dome lid topped with a small finial. An elongated geometric handle attaches near the top mount and extends downwards alongside the body, terminating in a scroll-shaped terminal. The silver components display a bright metallic finish while the glass remains clear. Measuring 30.5 cm high, 12.5 cm wide, and 12.5 cm deep, this piece serves as a functional serving vessel for wine or water during dining. The design suits placement on a sideboard top in a dining room or within a gentleman's library setting.

FAQs

A claret jug is a specialized decanter designed in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to serve claret and red wine, typically featuring a glass reservoir with a silver or silver-plated mount, handle, and hinged lid.

These vessels were generally constructed using blown or wheel-cut lead crystal for the main body, paired with electroplated nickel silver (EPNS) or sterling silver for the neck, spout, hinge, and handle.

Authentic period pieces feature makers marks or EPNS stamps near the collar or handle, evidence of hand-cut glass design, and historical construction details such as hand-pinned hinges.

Place the jug on a sideboard, drinks trolley, or bar cabinet alongside crystal glassware to create a refined focal point in dining rooms or living spaces.

Hand wash the interior glass reservoir with warm water and mild liquid detergent, avoiding submersion of the silver-plated collar, and gently polish the metal exterior using a soft cloth designed for silver plate.
