Cut glass decanter

A flea market had a bunch of decanters from a collector's stash. A handful of them I deemed to be possibly antique. I'm not a glass expert by any means so I decided not to buy the others... yet. Only this one I really like.

It's cut glass, the base is smooth with a depression in the center. The lid has an air bubble, that's the only major one I've seen so far, though haven't looked at it so much yet.

The pattern reminds me of some early 1900's glassware I've seen. What do you think? Age? Origin? Suggestions and comments are welcome.

The pictures are taken with flash so the colours and / or depth of elements may be distorted.



Edit: Makers that have similar shapes: Cambridge glass company, Baccarat?

This one is similar but has much more "marks" in the base.

 

The one in the center of this picture looks identical except the lid is a bit thicker and shorter, but the site doesn't offer any info about it:

Another almost identical pair described as victorian:

Conclusions? Clearly the design doesn't put it into a specific box, unless victorian. The technical side interests me more: is the decanter I posted pictures of made in a way that was possible in the 19th century?

 

You have a turn of the century decanter.
The stopper has what they call an air trap bubble put there intentionally.
What you are calling a dip in the bottom is a "polished pontil" where the rod was attached and broken off after making the decanter, then polished smooth.

There is a site for shapes of decanters and what they held. I don't think I have it bookmarked. If I remember correctly, this would be wine as opposed to whiskey. What kind of wine, (and yes they had different shapes for different wines), I don't know.

Your decanter although pretty and useful, is not of high value. They generally have a simple cutting and there are a lot available. Yours appears to have the original stopper which is a plus, as many you find don't.

 

Turn of 1890-1900?

 

Yes, I would say 1900 to early 1920s.
