Antique amber-colored decanter with stopper. The decanter features beautiful silver floral ornamentation.
Craftsmanship: Variations in luster and slight asymmetries in the glass indicate that it was entirely mouth-blown into a mold. The stopper has been hand-ground (evident from the matte, raw glass finish on the plug) to ensure a precise fit for this specific bottle neck.
Decoration: The silver floral motif is created using a painted silver-layer technique. Signs of wear and oxidation (shifting to dark gray or black in places) confirm the use of genuine metal in the decoration, rather than standard modern paint.
Age and origin: The style is Art Nouveau/Art Deco, with a design aesthetic pointing to the 1920s or 1930s. Such decanters are highly characteristic of Central European exports (e.g., from Bohemia in the present-day Czech Republic or glassworks in southern Germany), though similar models were also produced by smaller Swedish glassworks during this period.
