Art Deco Smoked Amethyst Decanter with Stylized Sterling Silver Foliate Overlays







Art Deco Smoked Amethyst Decanter with Stylized Sterling Silver Foliate Overlays
This gorgeous Art Deco decanter was realized in Czechoslovakia, circa 1930. It features a tiered skyscraper style base whose edges are finished with sterling silver, and a conical body in smoked amethyst glass. The neck features sinuous curves that are repeated on the stopper. The body offers stylized foliate detailing in a sterling silver overlay. With its old world craftsmanship- characterized by a fastidious attention to detail- and graceful lines, this piece promises to add a touch of elegance to any surface that it graces. While it is a perfectly functional decanter- perfect for any bar set- it is also an objet d'art in its own right that would be a winning addition to any side table or bar cart.
