Description

This antique tabletop accessory features a clear glass insert fitted within a sterling silver mounted rim and base produced by Frank M. Whiting & Co., an American silversmith known for fine sterling hollowware and decorative table items during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The sterling collar is stamped “FRANK M. WHITING STERLING PAT. PENDING” and is accented with a delicate beaded border surrounding the opening. The form is compact and elegant, combining functional design with refined Edwardian-era styling.

The piece was likely produced as a toothpick holder, small vase, or individual table accessory intended for formal dining service or vanity use. Its thick clear glass body features a gently bulbous midsection tapering to a sterling-mounted pedestal foot, giving the piece a balanced and sophisticated profile. The understated sterling decoration and clean glass construction reflect the restrained luxury popular in American silver design during the early 1900s.

 It measures approximately 3 1/4 inches tall.
