Description

Cobalt held in a lattice of light, with a silver-coloured crown above.

This vintage biscuit barrel brings saturated blue and bright geometric detail to the table. Across its cylindrical crystal body, clear faceted decoration frames repeating cobalt panels, creating a richly patterned surface that changes with the light. A radiating starburst decorates the underside, adding another flourish to an already striking piece.

A metal collar frames the opening beneath a lift-off lid with a rounded finial. The swing handle can stand above the lid or rest against the body, giving the barrel its distinctive silhouette. The item notes identify the metal fittings as silver-plated; no specific maker, plating mark, or manufacture date has been established for this listing. Whether displayed on a sideboard or collected for its colour and form, it has the presence of a small ceremonial vessel.

The Particulars

  • Material: Cobalt blue cut crystal with metal fittings recorded as silver-plated

Age-related wear is visible in the close-ups, including surface scratches and marks to the underside and fine scratching and dulling to the metalwork. These signs of handling are part of its condition, rather than a claim of pristine or unused stock. Please study the photographs carefully. No lead-crystal composition is claimed.

A blue-lit table relic, gathered for the keeper who prefers their everyday objects with a little theatre. Carefully nestled in its treasure coffin, a vault relic from Vaen’kai Vault.
