Decanter?

Little or nothing to do with distillation.

Decanter?

Postby Glock19Fan » Tue Apr 03, 2012 7:15 am

Hello.

I am in the market to purchase a nice decanter to display some of my liquor in. I am looking to spend no more than $150 or so, and would like lead free crystal (if anyone does that?).

Any suggestions?

I've picked up some really nice decanters at the liquor store that came stuffed with high end hootch and cost about the same as an empty one.

$10 @ Chez VV (Value Village). It might be for wine but I like it.

This topic seems to come up from time to time... There's nothing nicer than your home made being displayed in a beautiful decanter..

Heres a llink to a post showing my WWII ships decanter.. Clicky...

I did eventually moved it from the table to an oak cabinet I have in my den... Dont know the name of the ship it came from, but I do like it...

Edit: Classy BD, as long as you like it, thats OK... :thumbup:

My daughter got me one of these last year. It's a nice decanter.

I will probably look around flea markets for some when I get off my vacation, but I am just worried about getting something made from lead. And I wouldnt mind paying a little extra to ensure it was lead free.

I purchased some nice bottles from brewhaus that I normally store them in, but I would like to have one really nice one just for display/guests.

I will check out those website though, thanks!!
