This week, I'm sharing pictures of a decanter, also from my grandmother. She purchased it in Bronxville, NY, when they lived there in the 1930's. I don't know what this style of silver overlay is called, but it's silver over blown glass. The only mark I could find on the decanter is shown in the photos, and says "995/1000 FINE SILVER" The lock may or may not be original, but it's been with the flask since it was purchased. It's silver-plate, and says "A.E.DIETZ". My questions are: What is this style called, and what is a rough estimate of it's value? I assume, since it's engraved on the front, that it dates from 1902. Apparently it was a gift for a 25th annversary. Incidentally, the liquid it contains is corn whiskey made in Tennessee in the 1950's. It's smooth, and still smells like fresh corn! Of course I keep it under lock and key. [ATTACH=full]152440[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]152441[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]152442[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]152443[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]152444[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
