The piece comprises a tapered cylindrical body decorated with incised concentric lines around the upper and lower sections, an integral top portion fitted with a floral embossed lemon reamer, a small detachable cap, and maker's marks on the underside. The silver plate shows a clean, reflective surface following professional cleaning and polishing. Practical dimensions are 21 cm high, 10.2 cm wide, and 10.2 cm deep.

It functions as a decorative tabletop accessory and barware item for mixing drinks, offering a practical way to prepare cocktails while displaying period French design.

FAQs

During the 1920s and 1930s, cocktail shakers became prominent social accessories, characterised by geometric silhouettes, polished metal finishes, and functional innovations such as integrated strainers or citrus reamers.

French makers frequently crafted cocktail shakers from base metals plated in silver, nickel, or chrome, utilising heavy gauge construction and precision-fitted caps or reamer lids.

Authentic pieces often feature makers marks or stamps near the base or rim, show hand-cut incised lines, and display era-appropriate construction marks along internal seams.

Place the piece on a drinks trolley, sideboard, or tray alongside period glassware and metal bar tools to create a structured focal point.

Hand wash with warm water and mild liquid soap using a soft cloth, avoiding abrasive scrubbers, and polish periodically with a specialist silver cream to prevent tarnishing.
