Part of Historic Manor Downsizing Auction (timed auction by Prime Auction Solutions)

Status: Sold

Present at your table one of the most distinguished decanters you will ever own — a stunning mouth-blown, hand-cut leaded crystal ship's decanter in the classic bell form, standing 12 inches tall and crowned with a magnificent figural cut crystal stopper. The iconic broad, flared bell base is a hallmark of the traditional ship's decanter design — engineered for stability at sea and celebrated for centuries as the ultimate expression of the decanter-maker's art. The dramatically wide footing narrows gracefully into a slender neck, creating a silhouette of timeless elegance. The body showcases exceptional multi-zone hand cutting — bold vertical panel cuts at the shoulder give way to an expansive diamond crosshatch field across the bell, each facet ground and polished to brilliant mirror clarity. A warm blush-rose tint suffuses the lower body, lending a romantic warmth that intensifies beautifully when filled with your finest whiskey, brandy, or port. The crowning figural stopper is a sculptural work unto itself — deeply cut with radiating facets that capture and scatter light in every direction. The hallmarks of a masterpiece: Mouth-blown by master glassblowers Hand-cut by skilled artisan craftsmen Finest leaded crystal — exceptional weight and clarity Museum-quality display piece and functional entertainer's showpiece Rare at this quality and scale. An absolute treasure for the serious collector or discerning host. 12"
