Please be aware that the ladle is not original to the set but is of the same time period (in the antiques business , this is referred to as " a married set ") The overall color of the set is a deep smoky topaz honey brown. Highly unusual & exceedingly rare. Complete punch sets of this age , condition and adorn ed divert beautifully & skillfully to this degree are rarely seen for sale anywhere. This is definitely an item for the discriminating collector or decorator who wants to step up the decor in any dining room setting.
Needless to say no microwave no oven no dishwasher no hot liquid liquids and must be hand washed in a towel padded sink. The Punchbowl has a capacity of about 42 ounces and is 12.5 inches high with the lid on and 30 inches circumference. The cups are 4 inches in diameter and the capacity is between three and 4 ounces. The ladle is 11.5 inches long and the ladle bowl is weighted.
