Rare Antique Victorian Pickle Castor made by Aurora Co., founded in 1869. The triple plated holder features a dog, which makes this quite a find for your Victorian Pickle Castor collection. The cranberry hobnail glass insert has a lid with a decorative finial knob, the set comes with claw tongs.
There is wear to the silver but it is all there, it polished well but there is some aging.Not perfect, but so charming. {It is the dog that captured my heart, and will capture yours too!} The tongs hang from the scroll "hook" on the back, I've hung it from the front loop so that you can see it better. This is such a classic and elegant set, it includes the holder, clear cut crystal pickle jar, lid and tongs. An heirloom addition to your collection.
