Art Deco silver cocktail shaker

Art Deco silver cocktail shaker

Sold

Typifying the glamorous flapper era of the 1920s and '30s this is a sterling silver cocktail shaker in the Art Deco style that personified those years. The shaker comes apart in the three sections, note the pierced middle section to filter the cocktail from the ice, and the knurled edge to the cap for ease of grip.

Art Deco was a popular design style during the '20s and '30s, characterised especially by sleek geometric or stylised forms. It represented luxury, glamour, exuberance, and faith in social and technological progress. For that reason silver cocktail and barware were popular categories of goods to reflect the style of the time.
