Cocktail shaker - Metal

The Art of the Art Deco Shaker – Crackle Glass & Silver-Plated WMF EPNS Cocktail Shaker, c. 1930-1940 STUNNING VINTAGE ART DECO COCKTAIL SHAKER, crafted by the prestigious German manufacturer WMF (Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik). THE GEOMETRIC ELEGANCE OF METAL AND GLASS: Crafted by the renowned house of WMF, this shaker combines a highly transparent glass body with a streamlined silver-plated mount and cap, perfectly embodying the timeless refinement of vintage barware. THE ALCHEMY OF CRACKLE GLASS: Highly fashionable during the Art Deco period and the mid-20th century, this glass is achieved through a controlled thermal shock during the blowing process.

It is a bar accessory that is both highly functional and timeless, ideal for cocktail enthusiasts and mid-century design collectors.
