DESCRIPTION
Vintage Pair of Silver-Plated Riding Boot Spirit Measures manufactured by Grenadier Silversmiths Ltd in England
Very Good Used Condition, small split to the rim of 1 oz plastic insert (see photo, split inside blue circle)
Key Details & Function
- Dual Capacities: These classic novelty barware items are designed as a mismatched pair. The right boot acts as a 1 oz measure while the left boot acts as a 1.5 oz measure.
- Construction: They feature a detailed silver-plated exterior cast in a classic equestrian boot form. They include white removable plastic inner linings to protect the silver plate from corroding from the acidity of alcoholic spirits.
- Alternative Uses: Beyond their primary function as jiggers/spirit measures, they are frequently used as decorative bar ornaments, matchstick holders, toothpick holders, or whimsical table salt cellars
