Precious faceted glass stoppers carved with great delicacy.

It consists of two concave containers with engraved decoration that sit on the bottles, each supported by three legs decorative undulating forms. One of the two bodies has a shield with an "M" engraved. Although the contrast is not, this is an entirely piece of extremely fine silver invoice. All parts are original and in perfect condition.The cruets, as we know them today, in its earliest form was developed a few small bottles, one for oil and one for vinegar on a support. In the early years were entirely made ??of silver, but from the eighteenth century to spend more assiduously manufactured glass, and by the nineteenth century pressed glass, allowing greater durability. Not until the mid eighteenth century when they appear alongside the "dusters" salt and pepper, which are attached to the bottles of oil and vinegar, creating functional and decorative pieces like this.Beautiful cruets with an unconventional way to decorate a table perfect beautifully served.
