Double Jam Serving Set in Etched Glass and Silver Plate

This set is notable for housing two cylindrical jars of highly clear transparent glass, beautifully ornamented in their upper section with a band of acid-etched vegetal motifs and scrolls. Each container is crowned with an elegant detachable silver-plated lid, topped by a classic faceted baluster-shaped finial.

Both jars sit impeccably on a fixed silver-plated base structure that rises on subtle ball feet. Emerging from the center of the mount is a stylized handle that serves both as a carrying grip and as a circular support to house the set's splendid original serving spoon, which exhibits profuse period floral engraving on both the handle and the reverse of its bowl.
