Get ready to celebrate the end of 2020 and the beginning of 2021 with this hard working champagne bucket that is undoubtedly witness to many historic moments at the world famous Mayflower Hotel in Washington, DC. The Mayflower opened in 1925 and since then has hosted inaugural balls, Charles Lindbergh, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, J. ...Edgar Hoover, Ronald Regan and basically, the who's who of society and politics.
This champagne bucket has the usual marks and signs of use that you expect to see in old hotel silver. Note the interesting lines and patterns made during manufacturing which adds to its appeal. The words " The Mayflower Hotel Washington DC" are centered under the Mayflower logo. Note that the ship and the words are faint, and not immediately obvious, but are there.
The piece is heavy, almost 5 pounds. It is approximately 8" tall. As shown in photo, the bottom reads: International Silver Co. Silver Soldered.
We will be especially sorry to see this prized piece go from my mother's hotel silver collection. It has been in the family for at least 40 years.
