Description

Enhance your whiskey memorabilia collection with this highly collectible 1970 Old Fitzgerald "Blarney Bottle" bourbon decanter, standing an impressive 11 inches tall. Produced for the Old Fitzgerald Collector’s Gallery by the legendary Stitzel-Weller Distillery of Louisville, Kentucky, this genuine porcelain piece beautifully celebrates Irish heritage. The front displays a vibrant, gold-trimmed illustration of Blarney Castle complete with a horse-drawn jaunting car, while the reverse features the charming Irish poem, "The Gift of Blarney," and a classic Gaelic blessing. It is a stunning piece of barware history from one of the most revered names in Kentucky bourbon whiskey.

This vintage decanter is in excellent aesthetic condition, retaining its original matching porcelain stopper accented with bright gold gilding. Incredibly, it still features its rare original paper hang-tag detailing the history of the bottle, alongside remnants of the green U.S. Internal Revenue "Bottled in Bond" 100-proof tax stamp over the neck. The underside is cleanly stamped with the official 1970 Stitzel-Weller Distillery hallmark. Free of any major chips or cracks, this empty vintage bottle offers an exceptional display piece for any serious bourbon enthusiast or collector of mid-century advertising porcelain.
