Know before you buy
No, the La Bola Decanter is designed specifically for immediate serving and presentation. It is not airtight, so it should not be used to store spirits for extended periods.
To maintain the finish, simply wipe the iron components with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using water or harsh cleaning agents on the iron to prevent potential oxidation.
The decanter measures 12 inches in height, including the iron base and the topper.
No, the crystal glass should be hand washed to preserve its clarity and integrity. The iron components must also be kept away from water.
The topper is designed as a decorative element to complement the globe shape. It is not intended to create an airtight seal, which is why it is best suited for spirits you plan to serve soon.
