A winner if the "Good Design" award from the Museum of Modern Art, the 948 bent neck decanter began as a mistake. When Winslow Anderson was working on a batch of 920 decanters—a straight necked decanter in the exact same shape as the later 948—one of the straight decanter's necks drooped. Turning this "mistake" into a production design proved to be a successful move for Anderson, as the 948 decanter became a seminal piece for Blenko and their modernist era designs. This particular example is missing its stopper, which should be a mushroom shape.
