Old Brown Sherry Wine Label

This top quality silver wine label bears the very scarce name of Old Brown Sherry, which is a title we have not previously encountered. it is one of a series of matching labels that we are currently offering that can be seen via the photos below.

Dating from the Victorian period and made by William Summers, the major bottle ticket maker of the period, this label has the bonus of a detachable chain (one end has a hook) to allow it to be easily hung around a decanter. The label has a good weight and remains in fine condition throughout.

Old Brown Sherry would have been used to distinguish the decanter's contents from standard sherry and is more sweet on the palate.
