Lot 648: A Pair of Edwardian Cut Glass Miniature Spirit Decanters with a Sterling Silver Whisky Label 1906
A pair of early 20th-century miniature cut glass spirit decanters, likely intended for a travel set or small tantalus. Each decanter features a square-section body decorated with deep diamond hobnail cutting and a star-cut base. The necks are fitted with white metal collars and matching multi-faceted briolette-style stoppers. One decanter is accompanied by a sterling silver bottle label suspended on a fine chain. The label is incised with the word WHISKY and bears full British hallmarks, including the anchor for the Birmingham assay office, the lion passant for sterling silver, and the lowercase date letter g for 1906. The maker’s mark B & Co in a circular cartouche is for Broadway and Co.
Dimensions: Each decanter stands approximately 10 to 12 cm tall including the stopper.
