Fantastic vintage ice bucket from Georges Briard. Features a footed lacquered brass wire frame holder.  The lid features a hand-enameled round ceramic tile that is inset into a gold tone lacquered brass shell with a matching knob. The ice bucket frame and lid were made in Italy and marked as such. The bucket is made by Fire King and has a heavy solid metal shell with a clear glass inner liner. The set has been given a coat of clear lacquer that is UV resistant and non-yellowing, to insure no rusting or deterioration and many decades of enjoyment. The ceramic tile is semi-gloss and there are a few white reflective areas in the photos. There is no missing enamel or wear. There is one very shallow indent on the outer rim of the lid, please see photos.
