Know before you buy
No, this decanter is not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand washing it with mild soap and warm water to preserve the clarity and texture of the lead-free crystal.
No, the Sterling Pond Decanter does not include a stopper. It is designed with a classic open-top silhouette, making it ideal for serving spirits immediately rather than long-term storage.
It has a substantial capacity of 50 ounces, which is more than enough to hold a standard 750ml bottle of whiskey with plenty of room to spare.
Not at all. While the exterior features a unique, icy texture for a tactile grip, the decanter is specifically engineered with a drip-free pouring lip to ensure a clean, controlled pour every time.
This decanter is primarily designed for whiskey and spirits. It does not feature specific aeration technology, so it is best suited for spirits that do not require the oxygenation process typical of wine decanting.
