crystal decanter

Elegant serving vessel

A crystal decanter is a decorative glass vessel, typically made of lead crystal or fine glass, used for serving wine, whiskey, or other spirits.

The crystal catches light and showcases the liquid inside, while the stopper allows the contents to breathe or keeps them sealed.

Decanters are associated with formal entertaining and home bars: He poured scotch from a crystal decanter.
