AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

An elegant pair of vintage salt cellars made of 800 silver, complete with their respective internal glass inserts and a small spoon, also in 800 silver.

The lot consists of:

* 2 salt cellars in 800 silver, each with a removable internal glass insert;
* 1 coordinating spoon in 800 silver.

The salt cellars feature a classic, refined shape, suitable for use or for display in a collection of antique sterling silver. The glass inserts protect the inner surface of the silver from direct contact with salt.

Indicative dimensions:

* each salt cellar: about 6 × 3 cm;
* length of the spoon: about 6 cm.

Indicative weights:

* first salt cellar: about 45.05 g;
* second salt cellar: about 45 g;
* spoon: about 6.39 g;
* declared total weight of the silver parts: about 96.2 g.

The metal parts are sterling silver with fineness 800/1000. The “800” hallmark is visible on the items, as documented in the photographs.

The set is presented in good vintage condition, with natural patina, light tarnish, and normal signs due to age and use. No aggressive polishing has been performed, in order to preserve the surface and the original patina. The internal glass inserts are included in the lot.

The photographs are an integral part of the description and show in detail the condition, hallmarks, and features of the item.

Decorative and collectible lot, particularly suitable for lovers of silverware, table objects, and vintage accessories.

Careful, trackable shipping with protective packaging, paying particular attention to the glass inserts.
