408

A Waterford crystal claret jug and stopper

Sold for £35
Estimated at £60 - £100


 

A Waterford crystal claret jug and stopper, the jug with hobnail cut body and starcut foot. Acid etched 'Waterford' mark to base. Chip to edge of foot (taped)

As mentioned in the description there is an approx 2cm chip to the foot extending approx 1.5 mm into the crystal. The chip has been restuck but is currently taped as there is a roughness to the edge. Though not obvious, if the fault was polished-out, the attraction would be greatly enhanced. Stopper in excellent condition.
