ABOUT PRODUCTID 23207
This Art Nouveau crystal decanter, crafted around 1900 in Vienna, presents a refined interplay of faceted glass and polished brass mountings. The body, made of clear crystal with a cool, slightly bluish undertone, features vertical planar cuts that emphasize its elongated, tapering silhouette. The base is adorned with a starburst cut, highlighting the artisan quality of the crystal, while the glossy, mirror-like surface produces a subtle play of light and reflections. The upper section is finished with a substantial brass fitting in a warm, golden tone – the angular, polygonal lid with a decorative finial and the sharply contoured handle exemplify the era’s fascination with both organic and geometric lines. The decanter remains in very good condition, with only a minor chip on the underside and no other signs of wear or restoration; all fittings appear original and authentic.This piece echoes the spirit of Viennese Secession: a dialogue between light and material, poised between the softness of crystal and the deliberate geometry of metal. Each facet and cut recalls the turn-of-the-century moment when craftsmanship met modern design. The decanter seems to speak of fin de siècle salons, where the elegance of daily rituals was elevated by refined artistry – as if every glint of crystal held a memory of bygone conversations and gestures.The decanter may serve as a striking accent atop a classic sideboard or a contemporary console, working equally well among antique porcelain and silverware or against minimalist hand-blown glassware.
