Bohemian Style Frosted Glass Decanter with Ornate Faux-Bronze Resin/Metal Overlay
Unbranded (Likely mass-produced import for home decor retailers like HomeGoods or Hobby Lobby) · Art & Decor > Vases & Decanters
Era / Decade
Modern Reproduction (2000s-2010s) designed to mimic Mediterranean or Moorish antiques
Material
Frosted/textured glass body with a cold-cast resin or cast zinc alloy metal overlay and matching footed base
Condition
Good. The glass appears intact; however, there is visible dust and potential patina wear on the metallic-toned trim. The footed base appears securely attached.
Demand Level
Moderate. Boho decor is consistently popular, but unbranded glass items without a stopper sell slower than functional or brand-name glassware.

Estimated Resale Value
$15.00 (Low) - $25.00 (Mid) - $35.00 (High)
Estimated Retail Value
$35.00 - $55.00
Comparable Sales
Similar unbranded decorative glass vessels with metal overlays typically sell for $18-$30 on platforms like Mercari and eBay. Branded versions (e.g., Pier 1 or Uttermost) can fetch slightly more.
Description
Unique bohemian-style decorative decanter featuring a frosted, bulbous glass body supported by a tripod footed base. The piece is accented with a wide ornamental band featuring floral and crescent moon motifs, complemented by teardrop-shaped metallic charms. Elegant and eclectic, perfect for shelf styling or as a statement piece in a global-inspired interior.
Key Features
Ornate 'antique bronze' finish, eclectic global aesthetic, unique footed silhouette, popular 'Boho' and 'Maximalist' decor appeal.
Authenticity Indicators
Likely a decorative reproduction rather than an antique; no visible maker's marks or signatures; construction suggests modern assembly. Confidence: High.
Flaws to Note
Heavy dust buildup in the crevices of the ornate trim; slight oxidation or finish wear on the metal-toned components; no original stopper.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Facebook Marketplace for local sale (to avoid shipping glass), or eBay/Etsy (as 'Boho Decor' or 'Prop Glassware') for a wider audience.
Selling Tips
Deep clean with a soft brush to remove dust from the intricate trim. Use keywords like 'Boho', 'Moroccan Style', 'Eclectic Decor', and 'Footed Vase'. Photograph against a solid dark background to make the frosted glass pop.
