Description from the seller

This object is a fascinating piece of high-quality antique or modern collectible, commonly known as a tipping decanter.
Here is a detailed description and an appraisal of its value:
Description of the Item
1. Structure and Function
The decanter is designed to be tilted without having to lift the entire bottle, making it easier to serve wine or spirits. The crystal bottle is set into a tilting frame mounted on a central support.
2. Materials and Style
Glass/Crystal: The body is in transparent crystal with a diamond-cut pattern, typical of Bohemian craftsmanship or high European manufacture.
Metal: The cage and the support appear to be made of silver-plated metal or pewter alloy decorated. The decorations feature floral and foliate motifs in a Neoclassical or Belle Époque style.
Base: A base in fine wood (likely walnut or mahogany) with ball feet, providing stability and a touch of classical elegance.
3. Fine Details
The original coordinated crystal stopper is present.
The perforated metal collar workmanship shows artisanal care.
