An Art Déco silver cruet stand by Faccioli of Milan, Italy, dating to 1900–1910, comprising a solid 800 silver framework with two cobalt blue handblown glass bottles, measuring 22.5 cm high, 12 cm wide and 4.5 cm deep, with a total weight of 520.27 g in excellent antique condition.
Description from the seller
Fascinating and elegant antique oil cruet, a precious artifact of refined Italian silverware signed by the renowned silversmith Faccioli of Milan.
The object consists of a solid and finely crafted support structure in 800 silver (with the corresponding vintage marks of the silversmith), enriched by two elegant bottles/ampoules in blown glass of an intense cobalt blue color.
The clear color contrast between the shine of the silver and the depth of the cobalt blue gives this piece great elegance and a strong presence on the table.
A decor and table piece of great charm, ideal for collectors of antique silverware and Milanese-made pieces.
