Antique Small Claret Jug/small Decanter French Silver Mounted By A Martel, Paris, Minerva Mark

£550    $738    €632
Beautiful Silver Gilt mounted Crystal liquor decanter (small) by master silversmith Joseph Alexandre Martel of Rue Beaubourg 41, Paris.
 
The decanter has an engraved crystal body with a raised enamelled pattern of floral swags and ribbons to the shoulders.
 
The crystal has a silver gilt mounted foot and combined lid and handle with floral swags and decorative handle. Both foot mount and lid/handle mount are hallmarked for master silversmith Joseph Alexandre Martel of Paris whose hallmarks were registered on the 20th July and 8th October 1888 and cancelled on the 30th April 1914.
 
The crystal component I believe was made by Baccarat (see photos for evidence) it is in good undamaged condition as is the raised gold enamel however the silver gilt has worn in places and the finial to the lid is slightly askew.
