Cut Glass Decanter with Stopper

This is a clear glass decanter, likely made of crystal or high-quality glass, featuring extensive cut glass patterns. The decanter has a classic bell-shaped body that tapers upwards to a slender neck, culminating in a flared rim designed to accommodate the stopper. The lower two-thirds of the decanter's body and its flattened base are adorned with intricate diamond-cut patterns, characterized by intersecting lines that create a multifaceted, reflective surface. Towards the top of the body, just before the neck, there is a band of vertical ridged cuts. The neck itself is smooth and unadorned. The accompanying stopper is also crafted from clear glass and features a faceted, ornamental top, possibly a large diamond or star-cut design, which sits atop a smoothly tapered clear stem that plugs into the decanter's neck. The craftsmanship suggests precision in the cutting, designed to maximize light refraction and create a sparkling effect. No obvious manufacturer's marks, signatures, or stamps are discernible in the provided image. The decanter appears to be in good condition, with no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear. There might be some minor dust or smudges from handling, but these do not indicate damage to the glass itself. The style is indicative of decorative barware, possibly from the mid-20th century or later, designed for serving spirits like whiskey, brandy, or wine. Its clear, brilliant appearance and detailed cutting point to a good quality piece.
