This two-part cocktail shaker is a Modernist piece made by Orfèvrerie Christofle in Paris around 1960 in the Bauhaus style. The object consists of a tapered base and a polished contoured cap, both rendered in silver-plated metal with a smooth, reflective silver finish and a streamlined silhouette. The visual details include a clean horizontal join separating the two sections, a flat top lid, and curved upper contours that catch the light, all bearing the signature of the Parisian silversmith. The shaker measures 23.5 cm high, 9.5 cm wide, and 9.5 cm deep. In a contemporary home, this cocktail shaker sits on a sideboard top or home bar to serve drinks during social gatherings. The metallic sheen and clean lines suit mid-century modern or minimalist interiors, functioning as both barware and a decorative display object.

FAQs

Modernist barware is defined by a shift towards clean lines, geometric forms, and a reduction of surface ornamentation, placing emphasis on structural purity, smooth metal finishes, and functional utility.

These pieces were primarily constructed from silver plate over base metals like nickel silver or brass, as well as polished stainless steel and chrome plate, ensuring durable and corrosion-resistant surfaces suitable for chilled liquids.

Authentic pieces generally bear stamped makers marks, hallmarks, or manufacturer names near the base or inner rim, along with weight and precise joinery that reflects professional workshop manufacturing.

A polished cocktail shaker can be positioned on a sideboard tray, inside a glass display cabinet, or atop a dedicated drinks cart paired with crystal glassware to create a focal point for entertaining.

Hand wash with mild soap and warm water immediately after use, drying thoroughly with a soft cloth to avoid water spots; occasional polishing with a specialised silver cream removes surface oxidisation without damaging the plating.
