Handcrafted vintage art deco silver plated champagne ice bucket wine cooler

A rather remarkable piece! This silver plated (over brass) ice bucket was hand crafted and hand signed. It took some effort to get this shining again, but it was worth it! Based on the design and condition I estimate this piece to be from the 1930s or 1940s. Throughout you can see little pieces of evidence showing it was hand crafted. For example the etched star at the base from the center point to cut the base or flipping the lid over to see lightly hammered edges and seams where the metal was joined.

Really beautiful leaf like handles and striped detailing. Some of the brass shines through from many years of use. The reeded lid comes off to make it easier to place ice into the bucket.

Hand numbered on the bottom L3448 and a signature I wish I could read.
