AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant engraved glass carafe-decanter with a mount in silver-plated metal, an object of great decorative charm that combines functionality with ornamental refinement. Its slender, harmonious form evokes a refined taste spanning the late 19th to the early 20th century, with touches that also harmonize well with 1940s–1950s settings for its scenographic character.

The body is made of blown and engraved glass, decorated with rosette star motifs that are distributed across the surface, creating delicate and brilliant plays of light. The engravings, executed with good precision, give visual depth and enhance the transparency of the glass, making the object particularly luminous when displayed.
The upper mount, the foot, and the handle are in finely worked silver metal. The handle, sinuous and sculpted, features a stylized zoomorphic shape that adds a sculptural and distinctive element, while the decorative bands display incised ornamental motifs that further embellish the whole. The pouring spout is elegant and well-defined, designed for both precise and decorative serving.

Ideal for collectors of crystal and silverware, for lovers of vintage tableware, or as a distinctive decorative element on a console, a sideboard, or a bar cart. The decanter combines visual impact and refinement, capable of enriching both classic interiors and more eclectic settings.

The condition is good and consistent with its age, with occasional minor signs of wear that do not compromise aesthetics or functionality, but attest to its authenticity.

Proper packaging and trackable shipping throughout Europe.
