Edwardian Silver & Glass Whisky Tot/chotopeg

A fine and collectable item of usable silver by the great name of Hukin & Heath. This delightful piece is an Edwardian Whisky tot or chotopeg. It was used to take a couple of shots of Whisky to bed to ward off sleeplessness. The body is glass and conical shaped with a star cut base and applied handle. The silver lid is hinged and has a thumb grip to assist opening. This particular example has a hallmarked silver kidney shaped label, also by Hukin & Heath.
