Know before you buy
The decanter has a capacity of 25.36 ounces, which is equivalent to 750 milliliters. This is the standard volume for a full bottle of whiskey or other spirits.
The diamond-cut beveled stopper is precision-fitted to the decanter's neck. While it provides a secure seal for serving and display, it is not airtight, so it is best suited for spirits you intend to consume within a reasonable timeframe.
To preserve the clarity and brilliance of the crystal, this piece must be hand-washed only. Use warm water and a mild detergent, and dry it immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth to prevent water spots.
While it is designed specifically for spirits like whiskey, cognac, or rum, you can use it for any non-carbonated beverage. Its architectural form makes it a striking vessel for serving water or high-end cordials.
The square silhouette is designed for both aesthetic impact and stability. Because of the weight and geometry of the crystal, we recommend a steady, controlled pour to ensure the liquid flows smoothly from the neck.
Yes, the Harcourt 1841 Decanter is an authentic piece from Baccarat, handcrafted in France. It is part of the brand's oldest and most iconic collection, reflecting the traditional craftsmanship associated with the Baccarat name.
