Toscani Ships Crystal Decanter, Etched with Clipper Italy, circa 1970s
Clear crystal decanter of flattened ovoid form with tapering neck and spherical stopper. The body finely wheel-engraved with a continuous frieze of clipper ships under sail, executed in a restrained linear style. Polished pontil base.
Height: 32 cm.
Condition
Good overall condition. Minor surface wear consistent with age and light use. No chips or cracks observed.
Notes
Toscani produced a range of etched crystal table and bar wares in Italy during the mid- to late-20th century, often featuring classical and maritime motifs. Comparable examples of ship-engraved decanters appear in European decorative arts collections and period barware suites.
Styling Notes
Perfect for whisky, cognac or as a decorative object. Pairs beautifully with modern, coastal or mid-century interiors and complements other fine crystal or silver barware.
