Description: Black Forest Carved Tripod Epergne with Etched Crystal Vase Insert. Really special and unusual form for a cut crystal vase. Probably Swiss or German. Supported by hand-carved Black Forest tripod stand. Leaf motif. I estimate this is late 1800’s. Very high quality hand-etching on glass. Only observed condition issue is one wood ding on foot. Glass vase is in mint condition. Condition: Very good giftable condition. Only mentionable issue: wood ding on bottom side of one wood leg, as shown in last photo. Glass is in excellent condition - No chips, flakes, breaks, mends, repairs, cracks, hairlines, blemishes, or mentionable boo-boo's. No sickness or white residue. Don't feel anything amiss when I run finger around edges. On wood, no dings, gauges or breaks other than previously mentioned. Dimensions: Wood stand 8.5” Tall x 5.5” wide x 5.5” deep. Glass insert has top diameter of 4-3/8” and is 7.75” tall. Cylinder body has 2-3/8” diameter. Together, total height is 10.5” Tall. Unpacked weight: 13 oz. Always happy to pass through discounts on combined shipping. I only charge actual postage, and always use recycled packing materials. Note some photos appear redundant because I take photos from all possible angles. On symmetrical items, these photos may appear redundant when there are no distinguishing differences or condition issues between side views. I gladly accept returns, but please note I do not pay return postage unless there was a significant error in my description. The item listed is being sold as is, as pictured and as described to the best of my knowledge. All dimensions and weights approximate. If you have a question or an assumption on an item prior to purchase, please ask. I much prefer to take the time on the front end to make sure you will be satisfied with your purchase. Remember, when buying vintage expect imperfections as these items have a history and have been in the possession of others. I try to list EVERY flaw which would be commented on something in an antique or vintage condition – this does not mean all imperfections resulting from normal wear & use require comment. My goal is to have no rude surprises upon receipt.
