This vintage crystal decanter is a timeless piece that brings clarity, sparkle and refinement to the home. Measuring 25 cm in height including the stopper and 12 cm in diameter at its widest point, it has a generous yet well balanced form. The body is decorated with cut glass starburst and foliate motifs that catch and reflect the light beautifully, creating a soft shimmer from every angle. The original faceted stopper sits securely and adds to the elegance and sculptural presence of the piece.
Height: 25cm (9.8in)
Diameter: 12cm (4.7in)
The decanter works equally well as a functional item and as a decorative accent. Placed on a drinks tray, it becomes an instant focal point, adding a sense of occasion to everyday moments. Styled on open shelving or in a cabinet, it introduces light, pattern and texture, pairing easily with both traditional interiors and more contemporary spaces. It sits comfortably alongside crystal glasses, silver barware or richly coloured glass, and looks just as striking when displayed empty.
Dating from the mid twentieth century, this decanter reflects the enduring appeal of cut crystal, valued for its clarity, weight and craftsmanship. The crispness of the detailing shows the skill and care that went into its making, giving the piece a sense of quality that stands apart from modern mass produced glassware.
Condition is very good. The stopper fits cleanly. Light surface wear on the base is present, entirely expected for its age and use, and this adds a gentle sense of history without affecting its beauty.
Whether used to serve wine, port or spirits, or simply kept on display as part of a home bar arrangement, this crystal decanter offers lasting elegance. It would make a thoughtful gift or a distinctive addition to an existing collection, bringing a sense of grace and occasion to any setting.
