Antique 1929 Art Deco Glug Glug Glass Decanter – Hukin & Heath Birmingham Sterling Silver Collar - Perfect for entertaining
A beautiful and highly decorative antique Art Deco Glug Glug decanter dating to 1929, featuring an elegant sculptural glass body, a hallmarked sterling silver collar by the renowned Birmingham silversmiths Hukin & Heath, and a substantial spherical glass stopper.
This striking decanter is a wonderful example of early 20th-century British design, combining traditional craftsmanship with the bold, flowing lines associated with the Art Deco period.
The distinctive clear glass body features a rounded, bulbous upper section, flowing into a dramatically moulded and vertically fluted waist before widening into a substantial rounded rectangular base.
Known as a Glug Glug or Gluggle Decanter, this unusual style takes its name from the characteristic gurgling sound produced when liquid is poured.
The decanter is finished with an attractive flared sterling silver collar, bearing the maker’s mark for Hukin & Heath (H&H), Birmingham assay marks and a date letter identified as 1929.
The clear spherical glass stopper complements the unusual shape beautifully.
