This Tastevin was commissioned to celebrate the birth of baby Emily.

The design of the Taste Vin takes inspiration from the form of a grape vine.

The interior of the piece shows impressions of the hand chased details and has been finished with a 22ct gold plate. The exterior of the piece has been beautifully hand engraved by Perry Lewis with the inscription Partagez la vie, Partagez l'amour, which translates into English as ‘Share Life, Share Love’. The piece has been enamelled with an exquisite painterly style by Jane Short which incorporates golden grape vine leaves and grapes.
