VINTAGE 20thC ENGLISH SILVER PLATED "RECIPE" COCKTAIL SHAKER c.1930
An 20th Century “dial-a-drink“ recipe cocktail shaker made in the United Kingdom, produced in the 1930's. The mechanism works by rotating the shaker, each small adjustment revealing windows which describe how to make a different cocktail. Just as the prohibition era was lifted in the USA in 1933, it is easy to imagine the appeal behind these objects which would have made wonderful items as gifts. As relevant today as it was then, it makes a fantastic conversation piece and wonderful as part of a collection of barware in the modern home.
