Jim Beam 'Oil Lamp' Cherub Ceramic Decanter

This is a ceramic whiskey decanter in the shape of an antique oil lamp or ewer, likely a collector's edition from Jim Beam. The decanter features a white ceramic body with intricate cobalt blue and gold decoration. The design incorporates rococo or neoclassical elements, with sculpted cherubic figures (putti) alongside stylized waves or clouds on the main body. Above this, there is a patterned band with a geometric or scale-like design. The handle is similarly decorated with blue and gold accents. The spout is wide and takes the form of a bowl, with a flame-shaped stopper fitting into it. The stopper is also decorated with blue and gold swirling patterns. A gold-colored chain connects the stopper to the neck of the decanter. A prominent label around the neck reads "136 MONTHS OLD BEAM J.B. Beam J. Beam". The base is stepped and ornamented with blue and gold designs. The ceramic appears to be glazed. There are no visible signs of significant damage such as chips or cracks, but the overall condition is difficult to ascertain from the image for surface imperfections or wear to the gilding. These decanters were typically produced starting in the mid-20th century as promotional items.
