Antique Wine Dispensor????
« on: April 04, 2009, 02:00:21 pm »
Hello all, I'm a newbie here. I have a glass and metal wine dispensor/caraff, that I am trying to research. The base is black metal, with metal grape leaves on the bottom. The container is glass (Or Crystal) with a glass insert. (I believe for ice?) There is a stamp on the bottom of the base that say's "Made in Austria". There is also a partial gold sticker on the glass. All I can make out on it is, "orger  cris" . Then below that is a scrolled letter "S" then a goblet picture, and the letter "C". Below that reads "andmade in Aust" . Any info regarding this piece is much appreciated. Also, the value info too if possible. Thanks. Lisa ;D

This is a wine or brandy decanter.  The middle insert is to hold ice so that it doesn't melt and water down.

Found one like yours for your information! on Ebay       Item number: 170318010262  for $69.00

and one similar kansascity.craigslist.org/clt/1106646123.html

Doubt they will get $50 for it.  More realist pricing $30 - $40
