ANTIQUE E. P. NICKEL SILVER & YELLOW GLASS DECANTER/JUG - PARROT w/GLASS EYES - AUSTRIA         (early 20th century)
Beautiful antique decanter/jug/claret.  Yellow glass body with clear glass handle. Visible glass in good condition. Head & feet in nickel silver.
Possibly re-silver plated at one time.
Maker's mark on the back of the head.
Some residue inside the glass, primarily in the tail end.    The lid (head) must have been re-attached at some point as there are signs of epoxy repairs that you can only see by looking at the inside of the neck area when the lid is open (see last two photos). The glass appears jagged so it must have been cracked around the top and repaired.  There is residue on the inside by the claws that look like epoxy may have dripped into the inside.  The decanter stands 10-3/8" tall.  The base measures 6-1/2" by 4".  It measures 6-1/2" across at the widest point (feet to tail).  Weighs 2 pounds 3.4 ounces. Even with the mentioned issues, it displays beautifully  Such a lovely & whimsical antique decanter!!
