Description from the seller
Elegant and original figurative bottle in the shape of a bird, made in carved green glass with decorative mounts in silver, including head, legs and collar. The bird's head features golden details that provide contrast and refinement, while the body of translucent green glass offers a very decorative visual effect.
This type of pieces were traditionally used as vinegar cruets, oil cruets or small bottles for liqueurs, especially on elegant tables of the mid-20th century. The zoomorphic form was highly appreciated in European decorative glassware, combining functionality and artistic value.
There are hallmarks on the silver mount, probably European silver (possible Portuguese or Central European origin), made in the second half of the 20th century.
Characteristics:
• Material: Carved green glass and silver
• Decoration: Bird head with golden details
• Style: Zoomorphic / decorative
• Use: Vinegar cruet, oil cruet or liquor bottle
• Origin: Europe (probable Portugal or Central Europe)
• Era: 20th century
Measurements:
• Height: 14 cm
• Width: 5.5 cm
• Length: 6.5 cm
• Weight: 177 grams
Very good overall condition, with light signs of use in line with age. Very decorative and collectible piece.
