Sterling silver.

Literature. Wine coasters were not made until the 1760’s when they were produced from pierced sheet similar to the cake baskets of that date. These silver wine bottle or decanter holders, were usually made in pairs, sometimes fours, but it is rare to find an antique set longer than four. The silver hallmarks were often stamped on the edge of the base and as a result the marks can sometimes be difficult to read, either because they were badly struck or because, over the years, they have become rubbed.

This pretty silver bottle stand is in very good condition. The silver marks are crisp and easy to read. Please note that this item is not new and will show moderate signs of wear commensurate with age. Reflections in the photograph may detract from the true representation of this item.
