AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant and original figurative bottle in the shape of a bird, made of carved green glass with decorative silver mounts, 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, oilers or small bottles for liqueurs, especially on elegant tables in the mid-20th century. The zoomorphic form was highly appreciated in European decorative glassware, combining functionality and artistic value.
Punched marks on the silver mount, probably European silver (possible Portuguese or Central European origin), made in the second half of the 20th century.
Features:
• Material: Green carved glass and silver
• Decoration: Bird head with golden details
• Style: Zoomorphic / decorative
• Use: Vinegar cruet, oil bottle or liquor bottle
• Origin: Spain
• Era: 20th century
Measurements:
• Height: 14 cm
• Width: 5.5 cm
• Length: 6.5 cm
• Weight: 163 grams
Very good overall condition, with slight signs of use consistent with age. Very decorative and collectible piece.
