Capturing the radiant luster of platinum, Nachtmann's Noblesse barware collection has a decidedly sophisticated appeal. Each 24 percent lead crystal piece features a glowing platinum rim and an etched ring of tiny ovals on a sparkling, precision-cut shape. Sculptural and dramatic, this 26-1/2-ounce decanter with stopper gives a favorite spirit the presentation it deserves. The oval body showcases the Noblesse design ringing its shoulders, then tapers down until it comes to rest on a broad, double-layered base. The long neck flares to a platinum rim topped by the gleaming stopper, which mimics the shape of the vessel below. Set on a fully dressed table or held up to the firelight, the pattern's artistry and quality are sure to please. Since 1834, Nachtmann artisans have crafted signature collections for fine European brands. Now, this distinctive crystal is available to home collectors and enthusiasts. Every piece is individually made and hand-inspected in small factories in Bavaria.
