SOLID STERLING HALLMARKED - FOOTED BEVERAGE PITCHER / MARTINI PITCHER  - 24 OUNCE SIZE -- STEP FOOTED IN THE REVERE STYLE -- SUPERB OLD PITCHER
--
ELEGANT FORM INTRICATE YET SIMPLE DETAILS - No personalization / monograms.  These are not made anymore.  Offered here is an estate item with patina of gentle use.  This was used to place juice on the self-service bar for parties at my parent's home, it also is for making a pitcher of martini like cocktails for two.  The pinched pour spout assists in holding back cubes of ice.  This is the quality one would expect from a fine maker silversmith.  Purchased in New York city by my grandparents after the World War. This sterling silver footed pitcher is hallmarked Sterling. It is in excellent near mint condition for an antique - view pictures.
Shows some minimal use - it is an antique - but it is in very good near mint condition.  Sits without wobbles, no repairs nor need for any.
Never personalized with any monogram, no inscription or modification (which we're told is rare and damages the value significantly for most collectors).  Hallmarked as shown in pictures, with clear STERLING mark etc.
Heavy older pattern that was hand crafted - not like the ones made today.
This is real show piece!  Estate used condition.
This is an heirloom quality collection item.  Collector's items, yet eminently appropriate for contemporary use.
Parents were serious about entertaining in a way I am not.  My family invested in quality items for gracious living.
CONDITION:  VERY GOOD - keep in mind it is used from the last century --- minimal evidence of use --- older, not brand new.  As seen in pictures this looks nice!  Great wedding gift item and it could be professionally polished to make it look brand new if that is what you choose.
Lots of Really Great Stunning items to a
dd to your collection.  Starting each lot at very reasonable prices.
Please review picture(s) for condition etc.  Not new, but Used Good Estate Condition with expected use on treasured old items.  No Monograms or Removals not noted -  Some hand washing/polishing needed!
Vintage heirloom quality, these were used for 30+ years for entertaining, as the items were acquired post World War II.
This is an outstanding, truly versatile, group/set of good weight/heft, elegant pattern.  Bid based on info above, but know these were from a very good collection of very fine household goods that were well taken care of.
No major flaws or damages not mentioned, expect general marks, spots, scratches, wear and patina commensurate with age and use of treasured serverware/flatware used for special meals/holidays.  All this has been stored away in the box for many years and a simple cleaning/polishing will make it look even more elegant on your table.
Most or all hosts would feel quite comfortable using this when entertaining the most special guests in your home.
