A Victorian Silver-Plated Cruet Set and Assorted Flatware
Description
A collection of antique silver-plated tableware and serving pieces comprising a five-bottle cruet set and several items of flatware. The cruet set features a wirework frame with embossed scrolling floral panels supported on four cast feet, topped with a central upright handle featuring foliate cast scrollwork. The set contains five cut-glass bottles with diamond-cut patterns; two are fitted with faceted glass stoppers and three feature silver-plated mounts including a mustard pot and two shakers.
The associated flatware includes a group of six small three-tine forks featuring decorative scrolled terminals to the handles. A large serving knife is included, featuring an engraved foliate design to the broad blade and a weighted, bulbous handle with a decorative pommel. The collection is completed by a shell-bowl caddy spoon with a foliate handle, an engraved sifter shovel, and a small condiment spoon with a circular bowl. No maker’s marks are legible on the metal components.
