Product Description
This elegant sterling silver tastevin was crafted in London in 1995 by Linden & Co, noted silversmiths based in the renowned Silver Vaults. Measuring 11cm x 7cm, it features a traditional shallow bowl and twisted rope handle design, hallmarks of classic wine-tasting cups once used by sommeliers and connoisseurs.
Historically, the reflective silver surface helped judges assess the colour and clarity of wine in candlelit cellars. Today, pieces like this carry both functional beauty and cultural heritage, representing centuries of European winemaking tradition.
A refined collector’s item or gift for wine lovers, it reflects craftsmanship and ritual in equal measure.
If This Piece Could Talk
“I once gleamed in the hands of a sommelier, catching candlelight as he swirled and judged the depth of a vintage Bordeaux. My silver surface mirrored ruby hues and golden whites, a trusted companion in cellars and tasting rooms. Though time has moved on, I still carry the romance of vineyards, the echo of laughter, and the ritual of wine shared with care.”
