Hi, even if you find a stopper the correct style, you値l be very lucky if it fits properly as they are hand made and the pegs all different sizes. If you are sold one at distance, I doubt you値l know if it値l fit until you try it, even if the seller carefully measures it. If a stopper痴 peg is too big, you could get it ground to fit but would probably be expensive.

You might find something cheap and suitable at markets/antique fairs - sometimes sellers have a box of loose decanter stoppers that you could try.

Some glass restorers keep a stock of stoppers and can grind them to fit. It's also possible to have a new stopper made, though it's likely to be costly. I know Facets Glass (https://facetsglass.co.uk/miscellaneous) claim to be able to source stoppers. Alternatively, a metal and cork stopper would at least get the decanter back to being functional.
