All of the four bottles are delicately manufactured and it has a body that collects the plant decoration and that is topped by a beautiful stopper. A bottle cap is broken, as can be seen in the picture, it is a pity since the rest of the set remains perfect. All the parts are well distributed in different levels in a decorative metal stand finished with a beautiful golden central loop, consisting of two long-necked fantastic creatures that come together in a decorative palm. The box that protects the glass is made of roots wood, and has a side and an upper window so that you can see the magnificent glass without damaging it. It has a full opening, both front and top, which facilitates the removal of the whole. The decanters are objects typical from XVIII-XIX century, the oldest being bulky long, topped by a narrow neck with caps of different forms. As well of the rest of decorative arts, its design depended on the style of the time. Liquor bottles were where most designs are experimented in, that is why they are more ornamental than bottles used for wine. The fact that it has a cap broken is reflected on the price, nevertheless it doesnt affect to the beauty of the whole of the piece.Dimensions: 34 x 30 x 25 cm
