Picked this up today. Not real sure on the age or what type of decanter this is, but it looks nice so I got it. It measures approximately 8 1/2 " with out the stopper and about 9 1/2 with stopper

Interesting!!!
Nice decanter, applied rings on neck, does it have a ground pontil, or a star base ?
It has a ground base.
Any one have an idea of the age of this decanter? Thanks
That really is an interesting decanter. Times lines on UK and US styles are not exactly the same but my guess would date it about 1820-30. This is my subject BTW

Thanks for the information.
Lovely!! That is an American decanter in 19thC, and probably the first half like lovedecanters suggested. This shape was popular throughout that century in US. A little pain that it has a wrong stopper. The original stopper should be a blown ball with some cuts similar to the body's. Thanks for sharing!
