Know before you buy
The cooler is sized to comfortably accommodate one standard 750ml bottle of champagne or wine along with ice.
To preserve the finish, hand wash the cooler with mild soap and warm water, then dry immediately with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive sponges or dishwasher use, and use a high-quality silver polish occasionally to remove any natural tarnish.
Yes, the piece is fully watertight and designed to hold ice and water directly. No additional liner is required for functional use.
The cooler is in excellent condition, reflecting its high-quality craftsmanship. It has been well-preserved, though as with any vintage silver-plated item, you may find very light, character-building patina consistent with its age.
Yes, the integrated handles are securely attached and designed for stability. However, we recommend supporting the base with one hand when moving the cooler while it is filled with ice and a bottle.
