Vintage Crystal Decanter β’ Silver Tone Metal Sleeve, Starburst Diamond Cut Glass (UV Reactive)
This striking vintage crystal decanter combines sparkling patterned glass with an ornate silver-tone metal sleeve for a wonderfully dramatic piece of vintage barware.
The clear crystal bottle features diamond-inspired detailing around the lower shoulder and a beautiful radiating starburst pattern visible through the base. The lower portion is enclosed in an aged metal sleeve with a hammered center panel and decorative pierced geometric borders.
Under UV light, the crystal displays a noticeable icy blue fluorescence, shown in the listing photos.
The design closely resembles vintage decanters associated with Gales of Sheffield, England; however, no manufacturerβs stamp or identifying mark was found, so the maker cannot be confirmed.
An original foil label reading βGenuine Crystalβ remains attached to the glass.
