Yesterday I pulled off to what was a neighborhood yard sale and found this Baccarat cruet in a box of other average glassware. I asked how much and the lady said she'd like 50¢ a piece on anything out of that box. I didn't feel any need to negotiate on this item. I think it's a vinegar or oil cruet, as it measures 8-1/4" tall and is signed Baccarat twice on the bottle and once on the stopper. No scratches, chips or flea bites. It was just a little dusty and dirty with a very faint mineral stain ring inside.

Nice find Tamrock. I see a seller on eBay calling it a 'small decanter' and 'perfume bottle'. Just some more keywords to consider come listing time.

Thanks for the tip... I looked at those and they're taller then this one. When I go to sell this I'll be happy with hopefully getting $25.-$30. out of it. It's a newer piece and in good salable condition. I also have pair of 1960's era Baccarat stems I need to unload sometime.

Nice. Is signatures on the side normal for Baccarat?

That's the first I've ever seen it and I didn't notice it until I started talking these pictures of it.

I've been looking at those and they're all taller than this one, which is only 8.25 inches. It'll be a while before I go to list it anyways. Things sell for less in the summer months or so it seems to me?

I thought about that, but thought maybe they measured their's with the stopper, and you maybe you measured your's without. While auctions may sell for less, you can always list BIN with best offer. Who knows, someone may see it that needs one to complete a set.
