8 3/4''T- Antique cut glass cruet silver scenic mounts Ibis finial stopper silver marked M&P. Wonderful piece of cut glass with highly detailed silver (no mark but we believe it to be sterling) mounts featuring putti or small children doing various things at waters edge or dock, woman holding a lobster who appears to be in the water with a man who has a fishing net, houses and a horse and probably Dutch. The stopper is clad in silver as well and has a silver Ibis finial. Looks to be Ca. 1870-80 and just an exquisite piece. Only marks I can find are: on scenic part- M&B- etched on silver on bottom- 14/77/27. Excellent condition with minor scratches and wear, a tiny, pinpoint flake on rim and a few tiny flakes on some cut edges, a small interior glass bruise on shoulder just under the handle at top where it attaches and some light interior stain or residue- a tiny tip of one of the silver spires has broken off (it is minute but I kept it) and one of the pointy tips of another building has been bent back behind the mount and could possibly very delicately be straightened out- there are a few tiny pinpoint flakes at base of stopper and a few minute, pinpoint flakes on some cut edges of stopper. Shipping wt. 2 lbs..
