SILVER OVERLAY CRYSTAL DECANTER 1920  


Click to view additional photos

Here is a stylish and sophisticated sterling silver overlay clear crystal decanter, elegantly-cut into a star formation on the base, and decorated with sterling silver overlay in a geometric Art Deco-style pattern. The neck is all silver and rises up from the circular, flattened body to form a large, curved pouring spout. On the opposite side, an applied silver handle creates a pleasing and gracefully curving counterpart. The heavy-guage silver overlay has been applied in a distinctive design consisting of bands of both vertical and horizontal lines augmented by strategically-placed curving lines to form an interesting and aesthetically-pleasing pattern. The curved lines converge in the front to form a small cartouche which has been expertly engraved with a 3-letter monogram, EJR, in an intricate and elaborate script. Both the decanter and its beautifully-matching stopper are in excellent condition. The base is marked with a pattern number, 999/1000 Fine Silver and name of the maker, Black, Starr & Frost of New York City.   Price: $1,650.00   Stock #AO460
