1970s | Spanish handmade leather carved decanter Porrón Porrón decanter

1970s | Spanish handmade leather carved decanter bottle Porrón Porrón is a traditional wine jug typical of Catalonia, Aragon and Valencia, mainly in northern Spain, and is made of hand-blown glass. It can hold a 750ml bottle of wine, not only for storing wine, but also for drinking. It has been part of traditional Spanish wine culture for hundreds of years. In northern Spain, just about anything can be drunk the Porrón method—cava, tacoli, cordial, cider, even Rio! Shaped like a cross between a decanter and a magic lamp, the Porrón bottle has a narrow neck that can be sealed with a cork (which also doubles as a handle) and a spout that tapers upward from the base. Minimize contact with air when the wine is poured out and spray out in a thin stream without direct contact with the mouth. This design facilitates sharing drinks in social situations without having to share the same cup. A person who is proficient in using Porrón to drink can keep a certain distance between the bottle and his mouth without spilling a drop. The further he pours, the more respect he will gain! In Spain, there is an annual Porrón competition to see who can pour wine into a glass from the greatest height without spilling. Porron plays a unique role on Spanish tables and is considered a symbol of tradition and culture. Often found at festivals, weddings, family gatherings and restaurants, adding fun and interactivity to the dining experience. Nowadays, most of them are simple glass wine bottles, and the ones covered with carved leather are even rarer. They are not only suitable for party exchanges, but also very unique for commercial wine and personal home display. If you like wine and leather goods, you can’t miss this classic.
