Cruet Set In Antique Silver Hallmarks For 1909. This is a Gorgeous Cased Antique Silver Very Large 5 Piece Cruet with 2 Matching Salt Spoons and a Matching Mustard Spoon. Open the lid of the large case to reveal a real WOW factor cruet set. The beautiful silver holders have very pretty scroll pierced sides. Each piece has an overhanging wavy rim which have a gadrooned pattern around the edge and each piece stands on 4 legs with claw shaped feet. Each piece has a shaped blank cartouche so it could be personalised. The two peppers are cylindrical in shape and have domed pull off lids with a decorative finial. The very large oval shaped mustard has a hinged domed lid with the same decorative finial and the two large salts are also oval in shape. Because of their size, the salts could be used to serve sauces, such as horseraddish, cranberry, mint, apple, tartare sauce etc. All the pieces come with blue glass liners.
This set also comes complete with its two matching salt spoons and mustard spoon, all having a pretty embossed pattern to the shaped outline and having an embossed terminal (the backs are plain).
All the pieces are made from a good guage of silver and all have clear hallmarks. This beautiful set comes complete in its fitted box which has a peach coloured material inside the lid and then the velvet fitted base I can best describe as a mustard colour

Overseas Purchasers Please Note: Due to the value of this item, I am unfortunately having to limit this to UK purchasers only
Antique and vintage silver by its very nature has been previously used. Silver is a comparatively soft metal and a combination of many years use invariably leaves its mark. I do endeavour to describe all items accurately but do not expect any antique to be in “as new condition”.
