French blown glass decanter and stopper

Very nice french captain glass decanter with its glass stopper. The bottom of the cap is made of frosted glass. Mouth-blown glass. Beautiful french work from the middle of the 20th century. The decanter has a wide and flat bottom and a generous shape. This decanter can be used for wine, whisky or any other drink good size. Elegant wine decanter. Nice decoration of the bar. Vintage. 1950s-1960s. The captain decanter is ideal, in particular, for decanting a young red wine. Thanks to its wide rounded base, contact with oxygen is ensured and allows the wine to balance while releasing its aromas. This type of decanter was called "captain" because thanks to its wide flat bottom, it was the only one that could fit in a boat.
