Description

In days of old red wine came with a lot of sediment

The English really liked their Bordeaux or claret wines

To enjoy these the wines had to be decanted and put through a seive to get rid of the sediment

This English silver wine funnel dates from more than 100 years ago.

As you can see from the photograph with the wine funnel in pieces there is a small ring.

A piece of gauze would be held by that ring at the base of the body of the funnel

Pour your beautiful precious bordeaux wine through the funnel into a claret jug

And serve!

This one is a classic English silver wine funnel dating from the reign of William IV

There is a coat of arms engraved on the main body

The wine funnel takes apart so a fine piece of gauze be used to seive the wine
