Imposing Jug Sterling Silver Animal Ornament - Horse Head

Splendid and impressive coffee maker in solid silver. The ovoid body rests on its circular pedestal festooned with a row of gadroons that can be found, long, above a collar of ovals, covering its entire lower part. The rest of the body as well as the throat are united, interrupted at the shoulder, with a large frieze on a mat background. The collar is enriched with finely chiseled ovals. The independent cover is placed without any hinge, its pine cone fretel on a rich leafy terrace, finely chiseled. The blackened wooden handle fits into two discs decorated with fine rosettes, the base in a plain hood enhanced with a net. The spout or mouldboard, is flanked at its end, by a horse's head, very stylized expressing the astonishment or stupor of the animal. Tiny micro-marks and micro-scratches from normal use, no dent or warping on this richly scalloped, high-quality coffee maker. Its weight and its beautiful presence make it a magnificent exceptional piece intended for the most prestigious tables. Very high quality work and quality. Height - Height: 32.5 cm, / 12. 8 in.
