 How to buy

Decanters, carafes, jugs, bottles, measures

Given that wine was stored in barrels and crude green glass bottles, some more pleasing container was needed to bring it to the table. Hence decanters. First used in the mid 18th century, they went through various styles & became particularly popular in the Regency period.
