This is a handsome castor set with 5 matching castor bottles. The set is tarnished and has an aged patina throughout which we refrain from polishing since so many people prefer the aged look to an antique. I could tell that Gladys might have cleaned this probably 40 years ago since t are polish residues in the handle still. I imagine this could be cleaned with a toothbrush if someone wanted to put in the time and tender loving care. The set stands at just 17 inches in height. The bottles are in excellent condition. The stoppers have some small chips on the necks w they are inserted, but other than that, the glass cruets are in good shape. The tops to the cruets are loose and are corroded some, but look ok all the same. The set is clearly hallmarked with the Pelton logo. Overall, this is a handsome set that could use a good cleaning and a good home. I feel like I just wrote up an item description that should be for dog needing a home fom the pound..LOL.
