An early 20th Century English Regency silverplate wine bottle holder. The tall, cylindrical gallery features intricate, geometric pierced fretwork that allows the label of a favorite vintage wine or champagne bottle to peek through while catching the candlelight. Flanked by two cast lion-mask ring handles and finished with a scalloped, gadrooned top rim, the holder rests on a substantial, stepped circular pedestal base for stability when pouring. The underside bears traditional English silversmith silverplate hallmarks.Â
