Solid silver bottle cooler, Napoleon III period - Maison Leroy (Veuve & Cie)
Superb solid silver bottle cooler, baluster shape, resting on a molded pedestal, with finely worked decoration of cartouches and motifs in relief.
This elegant piece is adorned with a coat of arms surmounted by a count's crown, bringing heraldic character and a particularly appealing aristocratic provenance.
The set is embellished with scrolled side grips, giving the object a beautiful presence and a perfect grip.
The diamond-shaped master hallmark could be identified as that of Leroy (Veuve & Cie), a 19th-century Parisian silversmith, later replaced by G. Arfidson & Cie, a guarantee of quality and craftsmanship.
Very fine craftsmanship for this object that is both decorative and functional.
To note: presence of its removable interior.
