"The White Star Line, known for its luxurious amenities, offered first-class passengers a taste of elegance with their cut glass vinaigrette bottles. These exquisite vessels, crafted by unknown creators in London and Birmingham during the early 19th century, added a touch of sophistication to the dining experience on board. One such vinaigrette from Vinaigrette, London circa 1833/34 showcases the ingenuity of its mysterious maker. Another stunning piece created by Edward Smith in Birmingham around 1856/57 displays both craftsmanship and functionality. Edward Smith's talent is further highlighted in his earlier works from c. 1825/26 and later ones from c. 1860/61. His attention to detail shines through each delicate design. Intricately shaped like a mussel shell, an enchanting vinaigrette made in London in 1876 adds whimsy to this collection of culinary accessories while maintaining its practical purpose. Not limited to traditional shapes, a purse-shaped vinaigrette dating back to 1822/23 captures attention with its unique form. Its creator remains unknown but left behind an intriguing artifact that combines fashion and function seamlessly. Other anonymous artisans contributed their skills as well; one example being a charming vinaigrette from Birmingham circa 1840/41 that exudes timeless beauty. The collaboration between T. Phipps and E. Robinson resulted in an elegant vinaigrette hailing from London around 1800/01 – showcasing the mastery of these skilled craftsmen. A purse-shaped creation by William Eliott emerged during the years of opulence in London (1815/16), demonstrating how even everyday objects could be transformed into works of art under capable hands. Lastly, we have another remarkable piece originating from London circa 1810/11 – jointly crafted by William Kingdon and William Eley – which exemplifies their dedication to excellence throughout history.
