Oil and vinegar set, Het set consists of a silver holder, two bottles of colorless, cut glass and a silver pepper canister. The bottom has a round arched elevation in the middle, crowned by a leaf-shaped, profiled button. It rests on four leaf-shaped legs. The same, cut-away walls are mounted on the two rounded ends, into which the bottles fit. They are constructed above a profiled bottom edge from C-volutes with rocailles, which form cartouches. The cartouches on the front and back sides contain flowers, a blade of the same model as the legs is attached to the ends. The walls are connected at the top by ribbons that merge at the front and back into C-shaped, branch-like ears that engage at the bottom. A spiral and three volutes rise from the center of the snares. The volutes merge into three widely spreading tree branches with birds, which together form the cylindrical wall of the pepper can holder. The round, flat bottom of that holder is attached to the inside of the branches. The (English) bottles of colorless, faceted cut glass for oil and vinegar have pointed stoppers. The twisted, pear-shaped pepper canister has a profiled, constricted foot and a loose, open-worked lid. The body is surrounded at the top, where it runs slightly, by a profile edge. It is engraved with flower branches descending from rocailles. The lid is crowned by a bird on a leaf twig. All parts are cast except for the bottom of the holders., Wijnand Warneke (attributed to), Amsterdam, 1767, silver (metal), glass, h 26.7 cm × w 23.1 cm × d 14.5 cm w 1843 gr h 17.4 cm × w 1715 gr h 13.9 cm × w 118.0 gr
