Description
A highly decorative silverplated egg cruet for four standing on four original reticulated cast feet.
The base is beautifully shaped, the border again reticulated or pierced. The stand has an exceptional naturalistic handle. Each reticulated egg cup sits on it's own pin, keeping it in place on the stand.
The set comes with four egg spoons, again, very decorative and each marked on the underside EPNS for Electro-Plated Nickel Silver. The stand itself is marked with the makers initials, however I have found it hard to identify the silversmith.
Excellent condition measuring 6 3/4" in diameter x 8" tall; the egg cups measuring 2 1/2" tall with a rim diameter measuring 2 1/4" and each spoon measures 4 3/8" in length.
Late Victorian or Edwardian in era, dating to around 1900.
