Waterford Crystal Colleen Pattern Ships Decanter with Stopper

This is a tall, elegant ships decanter crafted from heavy, clear lead crystal, featuring the classic 'Colleen' pattern by Waterford. The decanter has a distinctive wide, flat 'ships' base designed for stability on moving vessels, tapering upward into a slender neck with vertical facet cuts. The body is densely decorated with diamond (hobnail) and wedge cuts that create high brilliance and light refraction. A notable feature is the large, faceted crystal stopper which mimics the diamond-cut motif of the vessel. The craftsmanship is of high quality, indicative of 20th-century Irish crystal production. One of the circular panels on the front appears to be acid-etched or frosted with a floral motif, which is a unique customization or variant of the standard pattern. The item appears to be in excellent used condition with no visible chips, cracks, or clouding, though minor shelf wear on the base is expected. The glass exhibits the clarity and weight typical of fine lead crystal.
