Compact, functional, and supremely comfortable in the hand, it would make a distinctive addition to a gentleman’s drinks tray or home bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1908, Roberts \u0026amp; Dore was established in London as a manufacturing silversmith and cutler, but is also known for pairing its own silverwork with crystal made by specialist glasshouses.  Henry G. Richardson \u0026amp; Sons Ltd. was one of the principal names in Stourbridge crystal, with roots in the 19th century; the firm was acquired by Webb’s in 1930 and continued producing crystal under the Richardson name into the late 1960s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: 5-7\/8” (Including Spout) x 2-3\/8” (Base) x 1-1\/16” (Top)\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 10.9 oz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition notes: Excellent vintage condition overall, with no chips, cracks, or other visible damage. Cut decoration remains crisp and well defined throughout, including fan, crosshatch, geometric, and petal-cut details. Sterling silver spout remains clean and bright with only light surface wear consistent with age; marked “R\u0026amp;D” and “STERLING SILVER.” Base carries partially rubbed Richardson maker’s mark, still sufficiently legible for identification. Cork remains intact but fits slightly loosely when dry, so spout should be held in place when bottle is inverted and shaken for use. Cork may expand and grip more firmly when wet, although this cannot be guaranteed.  Other items in photos not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnless noted, all items are hand-wrapped and gift-boxed.
