Description

RUBINA IVT HP ENAMELED PICKLE CASTOR in SILVER PLATE FRAME – NICE!!!
This auction is for the Rubina Pickle Castor insert, silver plate frame and vintage tongs pictured above.
The insert has glass that is clear, bright and vibrant shading from deeper cranberry at the top to clear glass at the base. It has hand-painted florals that encircle its midsection. The flowers are connected by green stems and have green leaves. They are surrounded by Blue Dot with Orange Centers florals.
It measures 4 ½” tall and 3 1/8” across the top opening and 2 ¼” across the base.
This insert sits in a silver plate frame that is unmarked. The frame is very nicely decorated with delicate “florals-work” all around the rim where the insert sits and a geometric figure on the top of the handle.
The frame measures 10 ½” tall and 3 ¾” across the base. This frame is undamaged and the plating looks to be fully intact. The tongs are also undamaged and are 7” in length.
CONDITION
:
I do not see anything that would owe an apology on this piece. There are a couple of tiny fleas on the rim but other than that all pieces are in “AS MADE” condition, including the enameling!!!
PLEASE NOTE: You might want to find a new lid as this one is a tight fit in the frame.
