This decanter from 1950s Sweden exemplifies utilitarian glass craftsmanship with distinct Art Deco influences. Made entirely from clear, highly polished crystal glass, it features a cool, mirror-like finish that beautifully plays with light. The cylindrical body subtly narrows towards the neck, which then transitions seamlessly into a rounded, slightly flared base that provides stability. The lower section is adorned with regular vertical cuts, establishing a subtle geometric rhythm. The tapering neck is crowned with a substantial, multifaceted stopper, whose sharply defined, star-cut facets are a direct nod to the ornamental vocabulary of the Deco era. With no metal fittings or material admixtures, all attention is focused on the noble purity of the crystal. The condition is very good: free from scratches, chips, or signs of restoration, with a clear, flawless surface.This decanter echoes the voice of northern European elegance in the mid-century: its poised simplicity and controlled geometry are a testament to the Swedish masters' approach to material and form. The glass, shaped as a pure vessel, reflects light like a calm Scandinavian lake—evoking images of refined gatherings where restraint was considered the height of sophistication. The facetted stopper and patterned cuts recall an era where geometry and function were elevated into the language of decorative art, with every detail harmonized in a disciplined search for balance.The decanter lends itself beautifully to display on a chrome or silver tray, accompanied by minimalist mid-century tumblers. It can be paired with a lacquered bar console to underscore a collector's Art Deco setting, but is equally at home as a solo accent of Swedish design within contemporary, pared-back interiors.
