A decanter main function is to let your wine breath (at the same time take out the unwanted sendiment, which either formed during bottle aging or for unfiltered wine) A carafe would be more on the overall dining table presentation. (of course, a nicely designed decanter play a major role on dining table presentation also)

A decanter is used for older wines. You pour the wine into it and let it breathe which improves the taste and color. The older the wine, the longer you need to decant it. A carafe is a serving unit.

A decanter is a glass bottle with a small glass cork, it's usually used for liquor. A carafe has an open top (with no lid) and is used for wine.

What's inside You use a decanter mostly for port, sherry, liquors You decant a wine but you drink it right then. Decanting wine means you expose it to air which ofter softens the flavors in the wine and develops them

Decanter has a plug (ie cork) and a carafe doesn't!
