Antique glass decanter, glasses and tray
Decanter 10”h Glasses 3-1/4”h Tray 8-3/4” diameter, Lip of tray approx 1” high Glass is colored peach with a purple base on the glasses and top of decanter. The color has a luminosity to it and the pattern is hand painted. Appears to be hand blown, though I’m uncertain.
My great grandmother had it since my grandmother was very little. My grandmother said she always remembered it being in the house. (grandmother born 1919) so I imagine my great grandmother acquired it anytime before or around that time.
Inherited
Yes
Hi Kirby,
Thanks for confirming the number of glasses and the condition of the one glass, and yes, they are hand-blown and hand-painted.
These are lovely and most decanter sets that have come up for auction recently do not include a tray, which makes yours particularly nice....unfortunately, they simply are not bringing very much money. As an example, this set included 12 glasses, TWO decanters and a tray and only brought $250.
