This is a \u003cstrong\u003evintage pressed glass decanter with original stopper\u003c\/strong\u003e from circa 1970, and it has the kind of clean, confident geometry that the decade did very well when it wasn't busy with avocado-coloured appliances.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe body is square — properly square, with four flat sides and sharp corners — covered from base to shoulder in an all-over diamond lattice pattern that catches the light and throws it back in a hundred directions at once. The stopper is a squat cylinder with the same diamond pattern pressed into it, sitting on a frosted glass collar that seals the neck neatly. And here's the detail that separates this from a purely decorative piece: there is a \u003cstrong\u003eplastic sealing ring\u003c\/strong\u003e fitted beneath the stopper, meaning this decanter was designed to actually be used — to hold spirits, wine, or whatever you feel deserves a proper vessel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe top-down view reveals a perfectly round neck opening set into a square shoulder with a fine beaded border — a small but considered design detail that shows someone was paying attention. The base is flat and stable, with a moulded maker's mark just visible through the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn excellent condition throughout — no chips, no cracks, stopper present and sealing ring intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9.5 cm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 858 grams\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pressed glass with plastic sealing ring\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vintage \/ Mid-Century Modern\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYear:\u003c\/strong\u003e circa 1970s\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Excellent — no chips or cracks, original stopper and sealing ring present\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFill it with whisky.

This is, objectively, an improvement on round decanters and we are surprised it didn't catch on more widely. Maison de L'oro considers this a design triumph. The 1970s, for once, got something exactly right.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maison de L'oro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53077393736023,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0988\/4388\/5911\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_f1a6474d-be39-4f45-ad08-9a060d042917.jpg?v=1774016924","url":"https:\/\/maisondeloro.com\/products\/vintage-diamond-cut-glass-decanter-with-stopper-c-1970s","provider":"Maison de L'oro ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
