This silver-plated cocktail shaker originates from the 1930 period and exemplifies Art Deco style through its distinctive milk churn shape. The piece displays a polished silver finish with light signs of use, showing an angled pouring spout, an angular side handle, a strap handle on top, and multiple stepped mouldings across the body. Markings on the piece include EPNS, Asprey London, and Made in England. The object measures 26 cm high, 15 cm wide, and 11 cm deep. In a contemporary home, this bar accessory sits well on a sideboard top or drinks cabinet surface. It functions practically for mixing and serving drinks during gatherings or serves as a decorative display piece in a dining room or living space.

Popularised in the 1920s and 1930s, Art Deco novelty cocktail shakers often mimicked everyday items such as milk churns, lighthouses, or fire extinguishers, combining streamlined geometric styling with functional beverage service.

High-grade silver plate over base metal electroplated nickel silver was standard for fine barware, providing a reflective polished finish alongside internal strainers and fitted caps.

Authentic pieces typically feature distinct makers marks or stamps on the underside, precise seam construction, balanced proportioning, and heavy silver plating characteristic of early twentieth-century manufacture.

Position the shaker on a modern bar cart, a lacquered tray atop a sideboard, or within a glass display cabinet to add metallic contrast and historical depth to modern interiors.

Clean using a specialized silver polish applied with a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding abrasive pads or harsh chemicals that could strip the underlying electroplated layer.
