    Smokin-Hog
    (1 item)

    The Decanter is about 7" tall and 4"x 5 1/2" wide
    Crystal with a Hog smoking a long pipe with a glass in its hoof.
    The Stopper is capped with Sterling silver and has a Makers Mark of a Unicorn and says STERLING.

    It may be a Mauser Manufacturing piece (1897-1902).
    PLEASE, if anyone knows anything about this, please let me know. For now it will hold some good Rum.

    When I saw this piece I couldn't pass on it. It has great character.
    I thought it was glass but when it passed through the carry-on luggage Xray the guys pulled me out of line to go through my bag. They wanted to see what it was. He showed me the Xray image and pointed out the green color then compared it to my glasses that were also in the bag next to it. The Glass was clear and the crystal was green. I imagine it was all the lead in the crystal.

      Wow, what a decanter! Exceptional.
      I think that mark is for Mauser Silver, New York, circa 1900.
