Vintage Silver Fade Cocktail Set by Bauble

This is a mid-century modern cocktail set comprising a tall, cylindrical mixing pitcher and several matching tumblers, presented in its original silver-toned presentation box with a blue satin-lined interior. The glassware features a distinctive silver/mercury fade gradient, transitioning from a mirror-like metallic finish at the top to clear glass at the weighted base. Each piece is intricately decorated with an etched or silkscreened floral and filigree motif over the silvered section. The pitcher includes a pinched pouring spout. The set appears to be from the mid-20th century (circa 1950s-1960s), produced by 'Bauble,' as indicated by the stylized script branding on the inner lid. The glass is clear and of good quality with thick, stable bases. Condition-wise, the silver metallic coating shows slight signs of age and patina, but no significant peeling or oxidation is immediately visible in the image. The presentation box exhibits some age-related wear, including minor staining on the interior white panel. The inclusion of the original packaging significantly enhances its provenance and collectible value. Overall craftsmanship reflects the high-style entertaining aesthetic popular in the post-war era.
