Description
A vintage beverage dispenser composed of a cylindrical glass vessel mounted between a dark-stained, turned wood base and a matching wood lid. The clear glass body features an acid-etched design depicting a cluster of grapes with accompanying leaves and vines. The vessel is capped with a tiered, turned wooden lid featuring a rounded finial. The base is also constructed of turned wood with a wide, tiered pedestal foot. A brass-toned metal spigot is installed at the lower section of the glass, secured with a red rubber gasket. The spigot features a decorative quatrefoil-shaped handle. No maker marks, signatures, or country of origin labels are visible on the glass or wooden components.
Condition report:

The turned wooden base and lid exhibit minor surface wear, light scratches, and small indentations consistent with age and use. The brass-toned spigot shows minor tarnishing and surface wear; the functionality of the internal valve and the integrity of the rubber gasket have not been tested.
