Identification of Antique Glass | The Mell Glass Decanter
A small excerpt from the article- "Mell decanters were trailblazers in the world of glassware, being the first in Britain to be predominantly crafted in vibrant colours. They came in various sizes, ranging from the compact 0.5-litre "personal" versions to the impressive "double magnums" holding up to 3 litres. However, these sizes are rare; the most common variant is the "magnum", which typically holds around 1.5 litres."
