Whisky tots emerged as popular serving vessels in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, designed for individual portions of spirits during formal dining or club gatherings.

These items typically combine hand-blown or cut lead crystal glass with sterling silver mounts, hinged lids, and accompanying engraved silver labels or decanter tags.

Authenticity is determined by examining the silver components for official hallmarks denoting the assay office, makers mark, and date letter, alongside period-appropriate glass-cutting techniques.

Such pieces can be displayed on a bar cart, a drinks tray, or a mantelpiece alongside complementary vintage barware to add a touch of heritage and texture.

Clean the glass with warm soapy water and a soft brush, and polish the silver gently with a dedicated microfibre cloth and specialized silver polish, avoiding harsh abrasives.
