European vintage carafe with faceted stopper, Art Deco glassware

Elegant vintage European carafe featuring a transparent body with vertical ridges, a base adorned with a radiant star, a long neck covered in silver-plated metal, and a spectacular faceted flame-shaped stopper. Its geometric lines evoke the transition between late Art Deco and mid-20th century design. The exact manufacturer is not identified, and no maker's mark has been noted. A hand-engraved assembly number, apparently "34", is visible under the base. This type of number could have been used to identify stoppers that were individually fitted and adjusted to their carafes. DATED Circa 1930–1960. ORIGIN Continental Europe, possibly France, Belgium, or Central Europe. MATERIALS Clear glass or crystal glass; faceted stopper in glass/crystal; mount in silver-plated metal, probably a tin alloy or plated metal. The metal has not been tested and is not presented as solid silver. CONDITION Good vintage condition with superficial scratches, small marks, and minor signs of use consistent with age. The mount shows patina, darkening, and fine scratches. No cracks or chips are visible. Please note: a fine linear mark visible inside the structure of the glass is an inherent manufacturing irregularity — an air line or internal flow trace resulting from the manual moulding process. It is neither a chip, nor a crack, nor a surface scratch. DIMENSIONS Total height: 28 cm. Maximum diameter: 10.5 cm. Weight: 540 g. A remarkable decorative piece for a vintage bar, a liquor cabinet, or an Art Deco-inspired interior.
