Tom Dixon - Decanter - Glass - Tank Decanter

Iconic piece, designed by British designer Tom Dixon, draws inspiration from scientific lab glassware (like conical flasks or beakers), featuring mouth-blown clear glass with a distinctive conical/Erlenmeyer flask-like shape. The standout elements include:

• A spherical stopper (the bronze/copper-toned orb at the top, which appears metallic and reflective—likely hand-painted copper detailing for a luxurious, modern contrast).

• A flared rim for easy pouring.

• A heavy, stable base (often with a subtle ombre or solid accent in some variants, though yours shows clear glass with the dark sphere/base contrast).

• The signature etched/sand-blasted mark on the base “TOM DIXON”

The Tank collection (introduced around the mid-2010s and still in production/various iterations) emphasizes geometric forms (spheres, cones, cylinders) and craftsmanship, with mouth-blown glass made in Poland. The copper version adds a warm, metallic finish to the stopper and sometimes base accents, giving it a contemporary, sculptural barware aesthetic—perfect for whiskey, wine, or spirits.

This is a modern designer piece from Tom Dixon’s ongoing collections. It’s functional as a decanter (typically ~1L capacity) while doubling as a bold decorative object.
