VERY RARE 'OLD SHEFFIELD PLATE' BOTTLE STABILIZERS
English, circa 1800, the pair of foliate embossed frames fitted within their associated coasters / slides were designed to allow for a wine bottle to 'slide’ or ‘coast’ on the dining table in a stable manner, exhibiting areas of rubbing. One frame measuring 4 1/4" high, the other 3 3/4" high. Together with an associated pair of coasters measuring 2 1/4" high x 7" diameter, areas of rubbing. These stabilizers were most likely commissioned and therefore quite rare.
