Antique late 1800's Victorian-era Alvin .999 Fine Silver Grapevine 11" Crystal Decanter & 4 Shot Glass Set

This is a stunning and rare set. The pure silver overlay is extremely thick and will clean up to a brilliant shine if polished.
Condition is intentionally left untouched for the choice of the buyer on whether to polish or not.

The decanter has the original faceted crystal stopper, in excellent condition. Stopper is hand-etched on the bottom with company marks and numbers.

All the pieces are stamped "999 FINE" in the silver next to the Alvin-Beiderhase Co. mark and multiple company ID numbers, and all pieces are also hand-etched on the bottom with more company numbers.

Decanter measures: 11" tall with stopper, and 5.5" at the widest point.
The shot glasses each measure: 2" tall x 1.75" at the widest point.

****NOTE: eBay's categories do not allow .999 silver as a composition option, so I had to list the composition as "sterling". It is NOT sterling, it is .999 FINE SILVER.****

Beautiful antique condition. Uncleaned and unpolished. **One of the shot classes is cracked.**
