Baccarat Harcourt Magnum Decanter
Baccarat’s Harcourt collection dates to 1841, and the Harcourt Magnum Decanter carries the house’s signature architecture into a vessel designed for serious service. Handcrafted crystal with a faceted silhouette and Harcourt’s distinctive hexagonal base give the piece a commanding presence. Sized to accommodate magnum bottles, the decanter gives larger-format wines room to open while showcasing the craftsmanship that has defined the French crystal house for more than 250 years. Long associated with royal courts and papal residences, Harcourt remains one of Baccarat’s most enduring and elite designs. $4,000.

Riedel Black Tie Decanter 
Created to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Riedel’s Sommeliers glassware collection, the Black Tie Decanter features a striking black stripe formed by precisely introducing black crystal into the molten glass during the blowing process. Each piece is individually blown without the aid of molds, creating subtle variations in curvature that make every decanter unique. The slender neck supports a controlled pour, while the broad base provides ample surface area for aeration. Handmade in Austria, the decanter showcases the technical skill of Riedel’s premium pieces with a celebratory flair fit for the everyday enjoyment of fine wine. $725.

Lalique Merlot Decanter
The Merlot Decanter from Lalique features a rounded crystal body that gently rolls and pivots on its base, exposing more of the wine to oxygen as it moves in a poetic presentation that supports the aeration process. A sculpted stopper showcases the Merles et Raisins motif, a René Lalique design originally created for the legendary Orient Express, as the contrast between clear and satin-finished crystal highlights the craftsmanship of the legendary crystal house. Handmade in France, the decanter combines practical wine service with a design rooted in one of the most celebrated luxury travel experiences of the 20th century. $4,000.

Vista Alegre Oz Lead Crystal Wine Decanter
Crafted in Portugal from 30 percent lead crystal, the Oz Wine Decanter from Vista Alegre features a distinctive inclined silhouette that reinterprets the classic form with clean, contemporary lines. Its broad lower body gives wine more surface area for controlled oxygenation to help aromas develop, and the elongated neck supports a smooth, balanced pour. The precision-fit angled stopper extends the profile, and the crystal’s clarity showcases the wine itself as part of the presentation. Holding just more than 27 ounces, the design earned recognition from the German Design Awards and brings a modern edge to your table. $509.
