11 Handled Decanter Wine, American Brilliant Period Cut Glass Crystal Hobstars
This is a Gorgeous Shaped Handled Wine Decanter with original stopper. Measures: 11-1/2" tall by 4-3/4" wide at base. This is a great shape for a decanter with the bulbous body and long neck adorned with step cutting with the handle shaped to match the length of the neck. Huge stopper is so elegantly placed on top Double rows of Punty cuts in the handle for extra bling. It has Hobstars cut inside Diamond miters alternating with fan cuts. It is from the American brilliant period, (late 1800's to 1915) which is over 100 years old now! I know what ABP cut glass is. I never sell other types of glass as ABP cut glass so you can be assured this is genuine. Condition: This is over 100 years old- but for the age this one is in pretty good condition. The stopper appears to be original and would be the correct shape and larger for this shape decanter. The handle is attached the way it was made without damage like cracks or fractures. The only issues I should report is a few areas with tiny contact nips that hide in the pattern miters (common). And the inside has a little residue staining that could be cleaned professionally or possibly with a home remedy (but it can also be left as is since its not so bad it clouds it up and detracts from the beauty). This is for 2 reasons- We sell antiques / vintage goods, therefore they are used, I provide photos of the exact items and not stock pictures so you can always see the exact item you will get.
