Antique French Louis XVI Era Sterling Silver & Glass Open Salt Pair, Mascarons

  
This pair just in from Europe and aren't they wonderful! Beautifully shaped glass wells with tons of tiny air bubbles and those lion busts and ball & claw feet are fabulous. 950 silver 95% pure and so just above the. 925 standard for "sterling" silver. The silversmith marks are L. Dupré for Charles Louis Dupré, Paris circa early 1800s. Fantastic, don't miss them! Not sure if the glass wells are original but they're in great shape, no chips or cracks and just those tiny are bubbles keeping them from being flawless.

No damage or repairs to the sterling silver base/stands. See pictures for all measurements.
