Comprising a graceful, handled decanter and five matching stemmed cordial glasses (based on standard set counts, though only one is pictured close up, the title implies a set), this collection is crafted from delicate smoked topaz glass. The set is heavily embellished with wide bands of gold gilt and intricate hand-painted floral motifs in a striking black and gold silhouette. The decanter features a classic ewer shape with a sweeping applied handle and a fitted spire stopper, embodying the luxurious aesthetic of Hollywood Regency and traditional Bohemian glass design.

Functional as it is decorative, this set is perfectly scaled for serving after-dinner digestifs, sherry, or schnapps. The decanter measures 4.75 inches in diameter and stands 12.75 inches tall, while the delicate glasses measure 2 inches in diameter and 5.25 inches tall. The set is in good vintage condition, possessing a distinct time-worn character; there is visible rubbing and patina to the gold gilding—particularly on the decanter neck, spout, and stopper—which authenticates its age and history. A stunning conversation piece, this set adds a layer of Old World grandeur and vintage patina to any bar cart or display cabinet. See less
