Blenko Joel Myers Decanter

Blenko Joel Myers Decanter

Such a departure from the basic wine decanter! I love and covet this thing!!! Reminiscent of brilliantly colored, hand-blown, decorative 1960's Blenko glassware designs, the Blenko collection from notNeutral helps bring classic glassware to modern homes. The Blenko decanter was designed by Joel Myers and is an essential, yet stylish piece for any wine aficionado.

I'd invite over all my girlfriends on a Sunday afternoon and we'd gaze at my dazzling jewel-topped bottles and wonder "which one of you lovelies shall we drink first?" »

  • After presenting way too many wine decanters with floating bits of cork in them, I got smart and got the Screwpull wine bottle opener.
