Artisan-crafted in Bohemia, in the region of present-day Czech Republic, the piece reflects the long tradition of decorative cut-glass production associated with Central European glassmaking.

The decanter has a distinctive flattened oval form, giving it an elegant sculptural silhouette when viewed from both the front and side. Thick clear crystal sections curve around the amber-colored central panels, creating depth and attractive reflections as the piece catches the light.

The amber panels are embellished with delicate frosted floral, leaf and foliate motifs. These pale botanical details stand out beautifully against the warm amber background and continue onto the coordinating stopper.

The matching stopper is individually shaped and decorated in clear and amber crystal, completing the composition. Its elongated oval form echoes the proportions and decoration of the decanter itself.

Suitable for use as a carafe or decanter, the piece is equally attractive as a decorative object in a bar cabinet, vitrine, dining room or collection of antique Bohemian glass.
