Victorian Sterling Silver & Engraved Decanter

Sparkling at every turn with brilliantly hand-engraved crystal and gleaming sterling silver, we are inspired to distraction by this magnificent Victorian Sterling Silver & Engraved Crystal Claret Decanter. Gracefully imagined and magnificent in nature, this exquisite vessel was found at a recent silver market in the north of England.

A beautiful example of serveware designed to captivate distinguished guests, this grand decanter was engraved with the monogram "H" for further distinction. Designed for maximum allure while dining or drinking by candlelight, the addition of liquid to the decanter creates a stunning effect in which the engraved cuts within the glass glimmer and dance in the flickering light.

With an impressive stature of shining crystal and embellished with magnificent sterling silver, this stately decanter captivates with every detail. It will surely make a swoon-worthy gift or memorable addition to any well-dressed table. 

Strictly one-of-a-kind and subject to prior sale. Circa 1895. In very good antique condition. 5.5"D x 14"H.
