Antique French Clear Glass Enameled Decanter

Sure to imbue the spirit of any setting with charm, we were delighted to discover this lovingly embellished Antique French Enameled Decanter at market this spring. Found at a neighborhood market on a breezy afternoon, we were completely smitten by the charming artisan quality of its hand-applied porcelain enamelling and striking pattern.

Mixing graphic shapes in royal blues and creamy white with pops of exuberant orange and yellow, the clear glossy surface of the decanter with its whimsical embellishment makes a cheerful impression. Adding your favorite beverage or wine produces a lively effect - the detailed pattern seems to spring to life as the buoyant liquid swishes and swirls, reflecting light as it dances around the ample circumference. 

With a handblown stopper that adds graceful stature, this pretty decanter brings to mind the delicate detail and playful technique of a work by the avant garde Austrian artist, Gustav Klimt, known for his lush and impressionistic depictions during the Art Nouveau period. As fresh today as it was moderne for its time, this enchanting vessel promises to bring a stylish sophistication to any setting.

Strictly one-of-a-kind and subject to prior sale. In very good antique condition. 10.75"H x 6" in diameter.
