An 20th Century “dial-a-drink“ recipe cocktail shaker made in England, produced in the 1930's. This fascinating piece of barware combines style with functionality. The shaker features a clever mechanism where rotating the outer body reveals small windows displaying different cocktail recipes, allowing the user to switch between drinks.
Produced shortly after the end of Prohibition in the USA in 1933, it's easy to imagine the allure such an item held for party hosts eager to impress their guests with the latest in cocktail culture. With its sleek Art Deco design, this shaker remains just as relevant today, making it not only a practical tool but also a fantastic conversation piece, perfect for a modern barware collection.
