Description from the seller

Pair of blown crystal decanters with faceted stoppers – Art Deco style – 20th century

Detailed description
A refined pair of clear crystal decanters characterized by an elegant, timeless line, enhanced by original faceted knob stoppers recalling the taste of Art Deco. The bottles feature a harmonious silhouette, with a globular body and long slender neck, adorned with thin circular engravings that emphasize their formal clarity. The blown stems, perfectly proportioned, add luminosity and reflections to the composition, giving a particularly refined appearance. The essentials are kept and the absence of excessive decoration makes these decanters extremely versatile, suitable for use as liquor or spirits bottles or as elegant decorative elements for a sideboard or home bar. The ensemble represents a typical European production from the second half of the 20th century, inspired by the classic shapes of Art Deco.

Technical characteristics
Type: pair of decanters/liquor bottles
Material: transparent crystal
Stoppers: original faceted crystal stoppers
Decoration: linear circular engravings
Provenance: Europe
Era: circa 1960–1980

Dimensions for each decanter: Total height with stopper: 28.5 cm, Maximum diameter: 13 cm
Combined weight of the pair: 1.471 kg

Conditions
Good overall condition.
Both decanters are complete with their respective original stoppers. Normal and light signs of use compatible with age are present, including some surface marks and slight abrasions on the base from contact with surfaces. No breaks, chips, or obvious restorations observed.
Care is advised to view the photographs, which are an integral part of the description.

Curiosity
Decanters with faceted stoppers enjoyed wide diffusion between the 1950s and 1970s, when the home bar became a distinctive feature in European homes. The combination of clean lines and blown stoppers was particularly appreciated because it visually enhanced liqueurs, whiskies, and fine spirits.

Shipping
The items will be carefully packed using professional materials and appropriate protections to ensure safe transport. Tracked shipping with a tracking number provided to the buyer. The stoppers will be protected separately to avoid any risk during transport.
