Description from the seller
A table service of exceptional refinement and great elegance, signed by the historic Italian silversmith Calegaro.
A rare object of very high craftsmanship, perfect for embellishing the most exclusive place settings with an unmistakable touch of luxury.
Subject and Style: The set consists of a wide, shaped circular base, equipped with a practical and elegant central shaft with a ring handle. The display holds perfectly the five elements of the service: two tall bottles for oil and vinegar, two small shakers for salt and pepper, and a central cup provided with a lid and a teaspoon, ideal for cheese, sauces or mustard.
Material and Finish: The solid supporting structure, the lids, the spout of the pourers and the spoon are masterfully crafted in precious 800 silver (Silver weight 860 g).
The metal clearly bears punched marks guaranteeing the silver fineness and the factory mark "Calegaro" in several places. The five recipients are instead made in bright and pure crystal signed by the famous Italian glassworks RCR.
Technical Details and Conditions:
• Type: Condiment set / 5-piece oil cruet with stand.
• Manifattura: Calegaro (Silver) / RCR (Crystal).
• Materials: Solid silver 800, Crystal.
• Era: Vintage 1970s.
• Dimensions: Base diameter: 20.5 cm. Total height: 24 cm.
• Silver weight: 860 g.
• Condition: Excellent vintage condition. The silver is intact and solid, with a wonderful authentic patina and only light and normal signs of aging. The crystals are perfectly preserved and free of chips.
