This is such a lovely looking piece & a lot of work went into its manufacture. Stylistically it sits around 1830 we believe. Much smaller than a regular decanter, it may even be a large perfume bottle. Overall mallet shape with a double band of diamond cuts to the lower and 16 pairs of in & out tapering panel cuts to body. Stem has an 8 sided knop. Underside has a larger perfectly smoothed, slightly concave pontil circle. Target/Bullseye type stopper. Measures 12.3cm high to the top of rim, 17.3cm to top of stopper and has a base diameter of 11.1cm. An approx capacity would be +/- c. 350ml (i.e. a traditional dessert wine sized bottle should pretty much fit in it.)
