This large Art Deco cocktail shaker combines a clear cut glass body with a polished sterling silver mount. The photograph shows geometric facet cutting, plain rings, pyramidal bands, and a pull off silver cover with bulbous shoulders, an integrated strainer, and an octagonal cap. Measuring 30 cm high, the piece displays maker marks, a registration number, and an original owner monogram on the lid alongside minor surface bruises to the silver. In a contemporary home, this item serves as functional barware positioned on a sideboard top for preparing drinks during social gatherings. The clear glass and silver elements coordinate with modern entertaining spaces while maintaining the clean lines and geometric motifs characteristic of mid-twentieth-century design.

FAQs

Originating in the 1920s through the 1940s, Art Deco cocktail shakers feature geometric forms, streamlined profiles, and combinations of polished metal and cut glass designed for home entertaining.

Mid-20th-century cocktail shakers frequently combine thick cut glass or crystal bodies with sterling silver or silver-plated collars, strainers, and caps.

Authentic pieces feature official assay hallmarks stamped into the silver mounts along with hand-cut geometric patterns on the glass body rather than moulded seams.

Display the shaker on a wooden sideboard, brass bar cart, or open shelving alongside period glass decanters to form a focal point in dining or living areas.

Hand wash the glass body in warm water with a gentle detergent, and wipe the silver components with a soft polishing cloth to remove tarnish without scratching.
