Product description
Lot: decorative Austrian glass decanter styled as a pocket watch, labelled “Famosa LPW — Made in Vienna Austria”. The clear glass body has a wide gilt bezel with printed Roman numeral clock face and a T-bar curb chain attached to the cap. Metal fittings show age-related tarnish and the glass carries light surface scratches and manufacturing air bubbles visible in close-up photos.
This eye-catching piece suits collectors of labelled European glass, decorative barware displays, vintage-themed interiors or prop-stylists looking for a pocket-watch shaped decanter. It displays well on a drinks trolley, shelf or in a cabinet as a decorative accent — perfect for a restoration project or for use as a non-functional decorative decanter where the clock motif is the focal point.
