Description from the seller

A refined square whisky decanter from the “Manhattan” model by Saint-Louis, executed in heavy, beautifully cut crystal with a precise diamond faceting that plays elegantly with light.
The design is defined by its strong architectural geometry: a solid square base with excellent weight and balance, rising into a structured body where the deep diamond cuts create a jewel-like reflection effect from every angle.
This example carries the original retailer label of “Cristallerie Moser-Millot, Paris”, which is important to understand correctly: it is not the maker, but a prestigious Parisian crystal house and distributor located at 22 rue de Madrid, Paris 8e, active for several decades and known for selling high-end European crystal.
The condition remains very good overall. The stopper is in excellent shape and sits perfectly, and the exterior is clean but has one micro-defect see photo. Inside, there are light traces of time consistent with age and use, visible mainly as internal marks. These remain entirely normal for a piece of this age and do not affect its presentation or visual clarity.
Height — 25.7 cm
Top diameter — 6 cm
Base — 9 x 9 cm
