Fire Extinguisher Cocktail Shaker
The cocktail shaker was the rage during the 1920s and '30s. Shakers in fancy shapes helped mask their purpose during Prohibition. During the Depression shakers lent a glamorous touch to get-togethers, an image immortalized in Hollywood movies of that time. Cocktails are back in fashion, with antique shakers in short supply, and if found, at sky-high prices. Our thirst extinguishers will be a welcome accessory to upscale watering holes of this world. Be they private or public, they will earn their place facing the mirrors. The Fire Extinguisher is nickel-plated brass with silver lining. The original dates c. 1930, manufacturer F.C. & Co. Britain.
M. 24 x 10cm, 9.5 x 4”.
