RARE Waterford Alana Decanter 13” Vintage Crystal 1952-69 Ireland EUC (SEE PICS)

1952-1969 RARE VINTAGE WATERFORD CRYSTAL ALANA WINE DECANTER & ORIGINAL STOPPER: (*Thank you for visiting #TheSweetFind shop. Cross-Posted.*) RARE FEATURES: According to a 45-year veteran Waterford Crystal artisan, Waterford originally (through 1960s) produced the Waterford Alana Wine Decanter with this smooth multisided stopper w/ an unpolished stem. They later made the Alana stopper with a polished stem. In addition, Waterford originally made a smooth ball-cut on the base of this decanter — an arduous task that required a great deal of skill to get right. Waterford later started cutting a 16-point star on the base. This Waterford Alana decanter is in EXCELLENT preowned condition! Purchased from original owner listed as flawless. Upon close inspection, it looks clear with no cracks, chips, or cloudiness. Very light, fine, hard-to-see surface wear on base, not noticeable without close inspection. As with all handcrafted crystal, especially vintage, always expect a few tiny bubble dots and other possible unique characteristics of the handcrafting process.
