Introducing the ultimate statement piece for any high-end bar collection – the Betjemann Coromandel Silver-Plated Tantalus. An exquisite piece of luxury design, this tantalus is made from the finest materials and is carefully crafted.


The exterior is exquisitely crafted from rare Coromandel wood, a rich and exotic wood that is both striking and durable. The silver-plated accents add a touch of elegance and sophistication, while the hinged lid and side doors provide easy access to the decanters and glasses inside. An ornate silver-plated corner bracket, lock mechanism, and robust carry handle feature on this tantalus, marked “Betjemann’s Patent London 6192” on one end, and “The Tantalus” on the other.

But it is the interior that truly sets this tantalus apart. The three cut-glass decanters are each individually locked into place, ensuring that your finest spirits are always secure and protected. The glasses are also securely stored in a separate compartment, making this tantalus the most ideal accessory for entertaining guests or enjoying a quiet nightcap.

With this super tantalus, an operational lock is included, as well as a tasselled key. Turning the key clockwise unlocks this fabulous Coromandel Tantalus. By pushing down on the lock barrel, you will be able to tilt the handle forwards or backwards to access the beautifully cut lead crystal decanters. All of the decanters have been fashioned with crystal-cut hobnail designs. The stoppers and bases of the decanters have been faceted.

This Betjemann Coromandel Silver-Plated Tantalus is a rare and exquisite piece that will be treasured by collectors and connoisseurs of fine barware alike.
