Great buy from Ebay last night local to where i live, similar carafe page 223 Andy Mcconnell The Decanter, although these could be confused as a carafe as there is no internal grinding on the stopper or inside of the neck and the stoppers and bottle have matching nunbers. The stoppers are a really tight fit with no wobble.
The base internally has a high dome and the pontil has been polished, both are in incredible condition.
9 1/2 inches in height and 4 inches across the base.
Any extra thoughts would be welcome.

Very strange they look like they have some sort of growth on them, can't say I've ever seen one like it /them ::) ;D ;D

that green is very attractive.......... not so sure that I understand McConnell's rather ambiguous speculation of dates of c. 1825 or c. 1880 for his carafe - don't know if he amplifies on this in the text as haven't yet read the page. very attractive.

The only other I can find was sold by Scottish glass and looks hand painted described as ? Richardsons 1835

Just as a matter of interest and I don't know if this is completely a red herring but scrolling through the Schreiber and Neffen catalogue I came upon a jug and lemonade glass type thing that have the same prunts on the body.

It comes up as 86/205 page on that link. The book is 1900-1901.
There are many many many decanters in their many many many pattern books.
