Description: A stunning Green Lustre Glass Fairy Light. With hallmarked Silver Rim hallmarked for Chester 1911 Silver smith looks to be Richard Owen Williams, a particularly attractive and early item for this maker. A beautiful shape and wonderful design, by far the best candle jar type fairly light I’ve ever seen, or been lucky enough to have owned. The glass has a wonderful lustre finish to it with a beautiful mother of pearl sheen when held in the light. The glass is perfect, the silver has a couple of dings and signs of use, but not much wear. The hallmarks are still crisp and strong. This fairy light looks absolutely beautiful when lit from within using either a candle or a small led light. Unfortunately the origins of the piece, aside from the silver smith, have been lost to time. The quality of the piece, the over all appearance and feel of it, it would have been a very expensive decoration at the time and to me screams of being Liberties or similar. This one really is exceptional and a stunner. Please see the photos as they do form an integral part of the description. If any further information or pictures are required then please don’t hesitate to get in touch as I’d be only too happy to help. Listing a load more pieces out of the collection over the next few weeks, unfortunately for me, fortunately for you! Keep an eye out for the other bottles and bits I’m going to be listing. Almost all of it is fresh to the market for the first time in about 30 years. Welcome bids from international buyers and pack every item to a professional standard. I have lots of experience sending items such as this as far afield as Australia and the USA. All international shipping will be via eBay’s global shipping programme, as such I’m afraid I have no control over shipping costs as they are calculated by eBay. Please take the time to read my feedback if your thinking about bidding. This will very quickly give you an idea of how well I pack every single item, regardless of where I am sending it. Thank you for taking the time to look. If it’s a local buyer I can drop it off instead of posting it (postage costs will go towards fuel) I double box as well as bubble wrap and lots of packing peanuts and the insurance is incase of loss rather than incase it gets broken. Good luck and happy bidding! Condition is "Antique, Gorgeous and Used". Dispatched with Royal Mail special delivery.
