Very rare PAIR of Mercury Glass Butler Balls on Mercury glass bases... Butler's balls were and still used in dining rooms for carriage trade's butler to survey the progress of a dinner party by looking into the reflection the ball placed on the side board without having to stare at the guests. Very rare for a pair and to have survived over 130 years!
