New Amsterdam Silver Co Item

Description

I really have no idea what it is. From what I found online it is from between 1890-1904 and a product of the New Amsterdam Silver Co. (Now known as Knickerbocker). It looks to me like a rotating condiment tray. All of the 5 bottles are original. (salt, pepper, oil, vinegar and im guessing the other is milk). As you can see from the pictures, it is in good to excellent condition. Any information would be appreciated

These were hot items in the Antiques trade back in the 1980's when demand for Victorian peaked, not so much now though. Today these sell at auction in the $225-$350.00 range.

Thank you for your comment. Is there anything else you can tell me about it, namely, what it's called? Also where's a good place to sell it.

They are generally called " revolving condiment stands". You could try Ebay I suppose, Dealers will only offer about 30% of retail value.
