This elegant 33cm tall claret jug features a bulbous, clear glass body with deep vertical ribbing that creates a beautiful play of light. It is fitted with a decorative silver-tone metal collar, a hinged domed lid with a classic finial, and an ornate, scrolled handle. The metalwork is accented by a delicate leaf-motif band around the base of the neck, lending it a refined, late 19th-century aesthetic. Regarding its condition, the glass appears structurally sound with no major cracks, while the metal components show some surface tarnishing, minor scuffing to the plating, particularly on the lid and spout, which is consistent with age and regular use.
