Love this decanter by Stephen Bergne. Thanks to its cork holder it will stand at an angle; the more liquid inside, the lower its centre of gravity and more it tips! I’d like to see someone pouring a glass out though…

Egg-shaped glory – available from designerbox.com.

Many thanks to one of my favourite daily reads for the discovery of this ovular delight: the drinks business http://www.thedrinksbusiness.com/2014/04/top-10-wine-decanters/7/
