It was listed by Puckerings. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

A quite stunning and imposing piece, this quality and grand style rarely comes along.

The hefty cast frame is quality through and through, silver plated standing on six feet with four figural supports to back and front; with the folding handle incorporating two Cherub or Putti figures.

The three cut glass decanters are obviously large, each with a base diameter measuring 4 1/4" and standing 8 1/2" tall. They each hold 1.8 pints of liquid or just over a litre; so a really good size. They are hand blown all with ground pontils on the underside and each beautifully cut and all in excellent undamaged condition.

The underside of the stand is where the mark for the well renowned quality silversmith can be found; W&H inside a flag for Walker and Hall of Sheffield.

Impressive in every way and in superb condition, measuring 15 1/4" x 7 1/2" (max).
