FAQs

Ships decanters were traditionally designed with a wide base to prevent tipping during sea voyages on sailing vessels, becoming popular in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.

Authentic pieces are usually crafted from heavy lead crystal or flint glass, frequently featuring hand-cut geometric patterns and fitted with matching glass stoppers.

Authenticity is determined by examining the weight of the lead glass, hand-cut facets, pontil marks on the base, and minor signs of age-related wear such as surface scratches.

These vessels can be displayed on a drinks trolley, sideboard, or open shelving to add texture, light reflection, and classic sophistication to an interior scheme.

Antique glass should be washed by hand using warm water and mild detergent, avoiding harsh abrasives and extreme temperature shifts to protect the delicate crystal.
