Vintage Glass Decanter Set with Tray

This is a vintage decanter set, comprising a decanter with a stopper, six matching shot glasses or tumblers, and a serving tray with handles. The decanter features a classic bellied base with a textured or frosted finish, possibly acid-etched or molded, transitioning to a smooth, clear neck. It is topped with a faceted, spherical clear glass stopper. The six accompanying glasses are small, cylindrical tumblers, also made of clear glass with a diamond-cut or textured pattern around their lower half. A notable feature of the glasses is their dark red-colored base, which adds a striking contrast and a touch of color to the otherwise clear glass. One glass appears to have a slightly different pattern around its lower half, suggesting it might be an addition or variation within the set. The entire set rests on a semi-circular wooden tray, likely finished in a dark, possibly mahogany or walnut stain, though its surface is heavily covered in dust and debris, obscuring true color and condition. The tray includes four small, possibly brass or tarnished metal posts that hold a thin metal railing, serving as a handle or containment for the glasses and decanter. The overall condition shows significant dust accumulation, suggesting it has been stored or unused for an extended period. There are no visible chips, cracks, or repairs discernible from the image, but a thorough cleaning would be necessary to assess the glass and wood for imperfections. The style suggests a mid-20th-century aesthetic, likely from the 1940s to 1960s, a period when such barware sets were popular. The craftsmanship appears to be of decent quality, with patterned glass and a solid wooden tray, though manufacturing marks are not visible.
