Tankard - .800 silver

This type of wine pitchers or water decanters with cut crystal glass and elaborate silver mounts was produced mainly in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in Germany. Renowned silver manufactories such as Bruckmann & Söhne or WMF combined exquisite craftsmanship with cut crystal to create luxurious table centerpieces for wealthy households. The Rococo ornamentation with floral motifs and the elaborate lid design reflect the tastes of the Belle Époque. The 800 silver hallmark confirms the German origin and the high quality of the silver used. Such opulent decanters are highly sought after by collectors of antique table silverware and crystal glass, especially in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. They are valued for their exceptional craftsmanship, the combination of two noble materials, and their decorative impact. Lovers of historic table culture and Art Nouveau collectors specifically seek out such representative pieces that embody the glamour of past eras. The complete jug weighs, including the crystal glass and silver, 2640 grams.
