Antique DAUM NANCY French Liqueur Decanter Set, Absinthe Service or Bonne Nuit

Description

ABOUT US | FEEDBACK | CONTACT Antiques & Uncommon Treasure Antique DAUM NANCY French Liqueur Decanter Set, Absinthe Service or Bonne Nuit This set is unsigned but is absolutely by Daum Nancy. We've had this exact form with signature, and in fact are listing a slightly varied decanter with 6 cordial cups from the same 19th c. period, signature intact on some pieces. The late 1800s elegant glassware set is one made for absinthe service, with a tumbler (timbale, in French), the large pitcher for water and small for absinthe, and the sugar bowl for cubed sugar. All you need is the absinthe spoon and absinthe to revive the tradition. The set is complete, charming, undamaged. The stopper top for the larger decanter is unique in form and covers the spout, too. A fabulous old set and reminder of a time in history that the Impressionists often captured in their art (particularly Manet and Toulouse Lautrec). Absinthe is all the rage again. Here's a fabulous service set. Some will say this is a 'bonne nuit' or bedside table water, evening drink serving set, but the sugar bowl is the giveaway. Bonne nuit sets do not have sugar bowl. Very good to excellent condition for age and type. It is possible that the sugar bowl might have once had a lid or cover, though not for certain. That it is not feathered in gold suggests to me there would have been a lid, though. Some did, some did not. The set is Daum Nancy, unsigned. We've dealt in many many Daum sets in the past that bear signature. We do guarantee our descriptions, and we also accept returns if you're unhappy for any reason, but strong experience identifies the set Daum. No chips that I've located at all - not even on that fluted tray, which often has some nips. There is some wear-away to the gold feathering on handles of the 2 pitchers and here or there, but not much. A lovely old set!

Visit us often. The array and inventory change often in our dynamic shop. In 1998 we made the move from high profile stores in Beverly Hills, CA and Dallas, TX, to an entirely internet based operation. With physical offices in both Utah and California, but no storefronts any longer, we want to thank our great customers for helping us have the courage to operate entirely online. We have over 8000 very positive feedback notations to help you learn who we are and what our customers think of the way we do business. Recently, we launched our own website with an attractive and easy to navigate style. Easy to find us with a QUICK SEARCH of our BUSINESS NAME.

And your ranking of our performance is also very important! We wish to keep our 4.9 - 5 star ratings in all categories. Customer satisfaction is paramount with us, so if you're thinking we have not deserved your highest marks, please contact us and allow us to be sure your concerns are completely satisfied before you rank us. We aim for 5-star transactions every day, and depend upon you to tell us directly if we have not yet met that standard for your transaction. Thank you! We most often use USPS for our shipping needs but will be happy to ship by another carrier if you prefer. We charge only actual postage & insurance, never a handling fee and never for packaging materials. Ebay is now requiring that our clients rank us on "shipping". The shipping price, speed and handling are actually under the sole control of the delivering postal agency, not Antiques & Uncommon Treasure so please remember that and leave us high DSR rankings. As always, please also feel free to contact us if you have any problems or concerns, we'll do what we can to ensure a happy and mutually enjoyable transaction. Insurance has been eliminated as an option by ebay, forcing us sellers to either ship your items without insurance or assume that expense also. We always insure our items BUT, more importantly, pack them extremely well knowing that most are not replaceable. Again, damage in transit, while rare in our experience, is due to the postal agency handling and not caused by Antiques & Uncommon Treasure. Please remember that when leaving DSR ratings. Thanks! Our shipping days are usually Monday and Friday though we do our best to ship within one to two days once paid. Otherwise, paid items will be shipped on the first shipping day after payment is received (except when special circumstances exist). We prefer to use USPS whenever possible, and require all packages to be insured. If you prefer another method of shipment, please mention it. We charge only actual expense of shipment/insurance, except in the case of larger items which must have special wood crates built. Wood crate charge, when applicable, is a flat $35.00 in addition to actual postage & insurance charges. Other Information: Sales tax is now calculated by eBay based on your particular location. If you are within CA and are a dealer buying for resale, you must provide eBay with your active resale certificate # and acknowledgment of intent to resell. No exceptions. Auction Payment Methods: Paypal: E-Check, Visa, Mastercard, etc.. All payment options are listed upon checkout. Return Policy: We always honor a 3-day return on our items, and guarantee them to be as described. Money back, less shipping costs, which are not refundable, so ask questions if necessary.

With that in mind, we're easy to deal with and want you to be overly happy with your purchase from us.
