The bottles are supported by three female caryatids while the lstopper holders are supported by a cast mouth of a fish. The central stem\u00a0 has\u00a0 a very light frame consisting of two shaped profiles\u00a0 containing cast floral elements. The two cruets with handles have three acid-etched greeks and\u00a0 ground eight-pointed stars; throughout the bottle there are multiple bevelled stars. One of the two caps has a chip on the edge.<\/p>\n
The cruet is marked with globe and the seven trions for the silver title (800\/000); the mark with the plow indicates the Assay Office of the State of Milan and finally\u00a0 the silversmith’s mark which, despite being worn, bears the letters S and G interspersed with the symbol of death a skull with crossbones, identified by the G. Sambonet, (Milan 1987, page 203) in the successor of Gerolamo Gatti<\/strong> who died in 1828 and is not better identified. Ultimately the cruet was made in Milan between 1828 and 1872 i<\/strong>n 800\/000 silver by the silversmith who continued the activity of Gerolamo Gatti.<\/p>\n The cruet is in good condition.
