Crystal Decanter with Faceted Stopper
This is a clear glass or crystal decanter, featuring a multi-faceted design throughout its body, characterized by a repeating pattern of cut geometric shapes, likely starbursts and cross-hatching, suggesting a pressed or cut glass construction. The decanter has a rectangular or square base that tapers slightly upwards towards a narrower neck. The base itself appears to be octagonal or hexagonal from the bottom view. The stopper is prominent, made of the same clear material, and displays a large, faceted, spherical or domed top, resembling a crystal ball, fitting into the neck of the decanter. The overall style suggests an antique or vintage piece, possibly dating from the late 19th to mid-20th century, consistent with the popular designs of the Brilliant Cut Glass era or similar patterns. The craftsmanship appears to be of decent quality, with clean cuts and a sparkling appearance. No obvious chips, cracks, or significant damage are visible from the provided images, though a full inspection would be required to confirm. The clarity of the material and the intricate cutting indicate a decorative as well as functional purpose, likely for serving spirits. There are no discernible maker's marks or signatures visible from the provided images. The background suggests it is placed on a dark wooden surface, possibly a dining table or sideboard, and a framed picture is in the background.
