A stunning example of the exceptional form and luminosity of mouth-blown glass, Riedel’s Sommeliers Black Tie wine decanter could as easily end up on a display shelf as the dining room table or bar counter. The simple yet evocative shape recalls a classic brass instrument (thinking Strauss and his French horn concertos yet?) with a single flawless loop of clear 24-percent lead crystal curving from the high open tail to the narrow arching pour-spout. A slender black tuxedo stripe traces the decanter’s outside edge, offering a cleanly streamlined and sophisticated finish to the sparkling silhouette. Designed to fit snugly in the hand, the decanter holds 69 ounces and stands an impressive 16-1/2 inches high. The renowned Riedel family of Austria has specialized in fine glassware for more 300 years and holds every piece to exacting standards of quality and originality. As with all handmade works, each is unique and inimitable. To clean the decanter, simply rinse with hot water.
