DescriptionDecanter. Two quart capacity. Four flat cut ring collars and panelled cutting on the shoulder and between collars (15 facets to the panel cutting). Below this is an engraved and cut band with saw-tooth edging and a floral design. At the bottom is a band of eighty-five flutes. The pontil mark has been polished off of the bottom. Lip is badly chipped. This is part of a large set of matched glassware. Same as M51.1.69a and the design is the same as M51.1.67-68. There is no stopper of proper size for this decanter, so the larger stopper M51.1.71 is being used.
