Vintage Cut Glass Fresnel Lens & Etched Ships Bell Bottom Decanter (c.1900)

This wonderfully crafted ships decanter has been created to mimic a ship's navigation light or lighthouse Fresnel lens. The base has a cut glass starburst design with the body having a circular ribbed design right up to the rim. The front of the decanter has an acid etched three masted 18thC ship of the line and the chip free stopper is mushroom shaped, again with a cut glass starburst design to the top.

I'm guessing that it could be either Victorian or early 20thC in age and overall, it's in great condition with the odd nibble to the lower rim of the exterior, commensurate with its age & use.
