Abstract
An improved decanter vessel formed of a rigid receptacle and a pouring spout unit permanently engaged about the neck of the receptacle. The pouring spout unit has formed therein an internal annular cavity shaped to accommodate the neck of the receptacle. The receptacle and pouring spout unit are joined by a flexible material which surrounds the neck portion of the receptacle forming a mechanical lock between the neck portion and the pouring spout unit. During assembly of the decanter, the flexible material is in a liquid state to facilitate joining of the receptacle and the pouring spout unit and assure that the material evenly and completely surrounds the neck and fills the annular cavity. The flexible material solidifies after assembly of the decanter vessel.
