This clear glass wine carafe is a nineteenth-century Dutch piece in the Victorian style, dating to approximately 1880. The bulbous lobed body features alternating engraved panels of fruiting vines and exotic birds on flowers, separated by applied clear rigaree with a snapped pontil. An applied blade collar sits at the top, leading to a tall, narrow ring neck collar with engraved floral and fruiting vine decoration descending to a lower collar. The clear glass has a bright, clean finish. Measuring 22 cm in height and 15.5 cm in diameter, this wine carafe sits comfortably on a sideboard top in a dining room or living space, ready for serving wine during meals or gatherings. It brings nineteenth-century European craftsmanship into everyday use, offering a practical yet decorative vessel for a dining table or drinks cabinet.

A 19th-century Dutch glass carafe is a decorative vessel designed for serving wine, featuring hand-executed wheel-engraved motifs such as grapevines or floral patterns characteristic of Low Countries glassmaking.

These vessels were hand-blown using clear glass formulations, often embellished with applied trail glass ribs or moulding, followed by copper-wheel engraving to cut precise decorative patterns into the exterior surface.

Authentic period pieces display hand-engraved details with subtle variations in depth, a ground or polished pontil mark on the base, and micro-abrasions consistent with historic handling on contact surfaces.

Place the carafe on a dining room sideboard, open bar cart, or tray to allow light to filter through the clear glass and highlight the wheel-cut engraving.

Clean gently by hand using lukewarm water and mild dish liquid, avoiding extreme temperature shifts to prevent thermal shock, and dry thoroughly with a soft microfibre cloth.
