Serpentine Decanter, 1.5 L

One continuous curve that doubles back on itself twice and rises to an angled lip, standing on a small disc foot. The tube widens through the middle of the run and narrows again at the top, so the wine gathers where the glass is widest and pours in a thin controlled line.

Easier to live with than the Helix and almost as much to look at. It takes a full bottle and a half, it sits happily at the centre of a table because it reads from every side, and it will not survive being knocked over. Nothing in this range will.
