It has normal patina to silver from age and use. Needs to be cleaned with silver polish. Nice old patina to silver. Unsure of exact age but definitely at least 19th century. No issues with glass, just needs cleaning. The short cruet lid does come off, so it may need to be re glued? Or whatever kept it on before. It looks like there was some type of chalky cement around the rim which kept this lid on. I have seen this many times , and it is normal with this type of thing. Beautiful set with beautiful figural decoration! Measures approximately 10 1/2 inches tall to the top of the handle. Photos show blue reflection from the blue fabric that it is sitting on. Please keep that in mind. The metal is silver in person. It looks like silver plated to me. I don’t see any makers marks, but if cleaned one may be revealed. Please view the photos.
