Description
Crystal Decanter and Pitcher Bar Accessories
Beautiful heavy pressed crystal decanter and full-size pitcher. The decanter has a diamond block pattern on the body, a three ring neck with ovals, and a diamond block sunburst stopper. The pitcher has a diamond block pattern with vertical wedges, the handle is trimmed with ovals, the rim is trimmed with half ovals, and the base is a notched platform. The pitcher’s body pattern looks just like Waterford Lismore (see example below). Both are unsigned. The heavy pitcher has a medium weight band of bottom-wear caused by surface contact. The decanter has very light bottom-wear. Both have beautiful brilliance and clarity. Although the patterns are not exactly the same, they go together beautifully.
The glass looks and feels the same, as if they came from the same maker. They were found together. Age unknown. Both have a distinct ‘old fashioned’ styling. Probably Czech crystal. The Waterford Lismore line is actually Czech crystal. Waterford is known as ‘Irish’ crystal, but Czech makers are providing some of their molded crystal products now. It’s the same high quality crystal, but not hand-cut.
The large decanter measures 12½” tall, weighs 3½ lbs. The 24 ounce pitcher measures 8.25″ tall and weighs 4 lbs.[color-box]More About Czech and Bohemian Glass[/color-box]
