Cased French Art Deco Cocktail Shaker Set by St. Medard, Paris C.1940

1920 - 1940
For Sale by Puckerings
Description

A magnificent and very stylish Art Deco cocktail set sitting in it's original presentation case.

The set consists of a stunning cocktail shaker and eight small cups, all look to have rarely or never been used. They have clearly been on display as the previous owner have put some protective pads on the underside for display; I have left these intact.

All pieces are marked by the well renowned French silversmith, St. Medard of Paris; the cream tafetta on the interior of the lid, printed in gold, "Orfevrerie Saint Medard".

Dating to c.1940, the set remains in superb condition. The cocktail shaker has a maximum diameter measuring 4" and standing 8" tall; each cup has a rim diameter measuring 2" and standing 2 1/2" tall. The presentation box measures 13" x 14" x 4 3/4".

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

French Art Deco barware from this era reflects the streamlined, modern aesthetic that emerged between the World Wars. Pieces feature clean geometric forms, stepped profiles, and polished metallic surfaces, moving away from intricate Victorian ornamentation towards functional symmetry.

These sets were primarily constructed from silver-plated brass or nickel alloy, offering a mirror-like finish and durability. Fitted presentation cases were crafted with rigid frames, lined in velvet and satin, and secured with brass catches to protect the metalwork.

Authentic pieces carry makers marks, punches, or stamped inscriptions indicating the silversmith, such as Orfevrerie Saint Medard. Inspection should focus on weight, precision of reeded geometric decoration, and period-accurate plating techniques rather than modern cast reproductions.

Display the set on a dark wood sideboard, marble-topped bar cart, or within a glass cabinet to highlight the polished silver against contrasting textures. Displaying the pieces in or alongside their original presentation case adds depth and historical context to the arrangement.

Clean silver plate using a specialized liquid silver polish and soft microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh scrubbing or abrasive compounds that strip the thin layer of silver. Ensure all items are completely dried before storing them in satin or velvet linings to prevent moisture-induced oxidisation.
