Description: Antique 18th Century Wine Taster Solid antique French silver tastevin with a thick loop for the finger and tendrils leading off to each side. The marks are on the bottom but the surface is worn from centuries of wear and aren't easy to photograph/read. Along the rim it says something very worn that looks like "ARIE" and then in more legible letters it says "A. FARGETTE". Piece weighs almost exactly 100 grams. Great piece of 18th century silver.

Priority Mail shipping in the US. Buyer pay actual shipping costs. Good luck with your bid! Gold standards in most countries are 10k, 14k, 18k and 22k. These are averages and while a piece may be marked 14k please be aware that the gold content itself could have a variance of up to 1.5k. This means something marked 14k could be in a range from 12.5k to 15.5k. This is especially true of vintage pieces as technology wasn?t as precise. With gemstones, we guarantee everything described as a diamond has been tested. With colored gemstones however, particularly when small secondary stones, we make our best efforts to be accurate in the description but there could be some variance as to what the stone is. Colored stones of nominal value and semi-precious stones can?t be accurately tested unless sent to an organization such as GIA. If you have any concerns about colored stones in a specific piece, please contact us before bidding.
