This lovely glass decanter came from Turkey. It has blue and light brown/grey stripes spiralling up it, including from the base. The stopper continues the same striped theme. The decanter has a solid feel to it - it weighs about 1.7 kgs. It stands c. 350 mms high with the stopper, and 280 without; it is c. 180 at its widest. Although it could obviously be used to decant some liquid or another, we have only used it for decorative purposes - it looks great against the light!
