Pair antique Old Sheffield wine coolers

Sold

Excellent pair of early Victorian transitional Old Sheffield Plate wine or Champagne coolers with beautiful cast and applied vine pattern mounts, and removable liners allowing for the insertion of ice and water. These versatile coolers would also make excellent vases.

And here's a tip:
Don't just fill the wine cooler with ice cubes to chill your favourite wines or Champagne. Fill with ice, then halfway up with water, before dropping in the bottle or bottles. If there's room for more water, add it. Adding water creates an icy bath that's in contact with the entire surface of the bottle.
Cheers!
