This silver-plated caviar shell is a testament to European dining culture — a hinged shell with a removable glass insert, suitable for caviar, butter, olives, or small delicacies on a festive table.
Description
The shell is crafted from silver-plated metal, with the inside of the lid a warm golden color, and the base adorned with a delicate beaded edge. A small curved handle allows for gentle opening of the lid. The removable glass insert fits perfectly into the lower half — a thoughtful detail for hygiene and cleaning.
Dimensions
Diameter: approx. 12 cm
Height: approx. 5 cm
Condition
The exterior shows natural oxidation and a warm brown patina — age-appropriate and authentic for a vintage piece. The inside of the lid still glows warmly and golden. The glass insert is undamaged, and the hinge works perfectly. Price is for 1 piece.
Discovered at the annual flea market in Heidenreichstein. Shipping from Austria. Carefully packaged.
