The beverage was prepared by placing spices on the slightly funnel-shaped filter of the decanter and then pouring hot wine over them. The inscriptions on the medallions applied to either side of the flattened round body may refer to two weddings. One inscription, G. BETHLEN GERGELY/G. KENDEFFI RACHEL/1779, may mark the union of the decanters recipients; the other inscription, BÁNFI SUSANNA/KENDEFI GÁBOR/A O 1742, perhaps records the marriage of the brides parents. There is a discrepancy between the goldsmiths presumed death in 1772 and the applied date of 1779. It is possible that the guild allowed the masters widow to continue his workshop after his death as was often the case.LiteratureCatalogue of Fine European Silver.

It is inscribed with an invocation to 'Ali ibn Abi Talib the son-in-law of the Prophet Muhammad.

Its date of manufacture, 1775-76, is a useful indication of how deeply the Neoclassic taste had become the public taste, for only ten years earlier it was a more esoteric style favored by a small aristocratic clientele..
