Victorian Art Glass Ruby Stained Triple Wine Decanter Set Silver Caddy c. 1850
Today we're offering a gorgeous wine set made by the Rogers Bros. Of Connecticut, circa 1850's. The Extra Heavy silver plate holder or caddy, bears their mark on the bottom. The caddy is heavily decorated with grapes, vines and leaves - wonderful detail!
The patina is so nice we have not cleaned or polished it in any way. The handle unscrews from the body.
The decanters are hand blown and ruby stained or flashed. There are etched grapes and vines surrounding each bottle as well as the stoppers. The bottles stand 15 tall. The caddy is 21 tall. The bottles are most definitely hand blown and each one is slightly irregular. The pontils are smooth and polished. We don't know who made them but they appear to be Bohemian/Czech. We don't find any chips or cracks on the bottles other than a few chippies on the bottoms of the stoppers as pictured.
There may be some scratching of the ruby color around the bottoms of the bottles from being lifted in and out of the caddy over time.
