Blown glass covered in grape clusters, leaves, and tendrils — this hand-etched Romanian decanter set turns a bar cart into something worthy of a Tuscan villa.
Maker: Unknown (Romanian glasshouse)
Materials: Blown glass, hand-etched
Origin: Romania
Era: Vintage, 1980s–1990s (estimated)
Quantity: Set of 7 (1 handled decanter with stopper, 6 stemmed glasses)

The decanter is the showpiece: an unusually shaped handled decanter with a long, heavy stopper, striking in its proportions and unlike any standard decanter shape. The six stemmed glasses feature lovely tulip-shaped bowls, designed to let you swirl wine or spirits and capture the full aroma before the first sip — they'd serve equally well as cordials, brandy snifters, or sherry glasses.
A magnificent gift for the mom or dad who loves to entertain, the wine enthusiast, or anyone who appreciates a complete, beautifully crafted European bar set.
Romania has one of the finest glassblowing traditions in Europe, and pieces like this are a testament to why: the craftsmanship is meticulous and the glass itself has a wonderful weight and clarity.
