The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

A mell decanter is a traditional glassware form characterised by a wide, flattened bulbous base and a tall, slender neck, historically produced in Scotland and Britain for serving spirits or wine.

Antique mell decanters are typically crafted from hand-blown coloured or clear glass, often fitted with stoppers made of matching glass, cork, or silver-plated metal finials.

Authentic hand-blown pieces often display a pontil mark on the base, slight asymmetric variations in the glass wall thickness, and gentle wear on the resting surface consistent with age.

Place the decanter on a timber bar cart, sideboard, or window sill where natural light can accentuate the vivid blue glass and highlighted metal stopper.

Wash interior surfaces gently with warm water and mild detergent using soft cleaning beads or a non-abrasive brush, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners that may affect metal stoppers or corks.
