The item pictured is a Mid-Century Modern (MCM) clear glass decanter with a stopper.
It is made of clear glass. The body of the decanter is rounded at the bottom and features a distinctive teardrop or scalloped pattern in the glass. It has a matching glass stopper, which fits into a gold-coloured collar or band around the neck of the bottle. This style of decanter is characteristic of the 1960s barware design.
The "Richelieu" label on the decanter identifies the specific brand of brandy that was originally sold or intended to be stored in the bottle.
Richelieu is a popular South African brandy brand, known for its rich, full-bodied character. The brandy is produced in the French tradition, using double distillation in copper pot stills and maturation in French oak barrels to create a smooth, mellow flavour. The name "Richelieu" and its associated coat of arms allude to Cardinal Richelieu and French heritage.
The decanter is in good vintage condition.
