(Right) the famous patented design by Asprey London, with a heavy silver-plated body, polished oak ‘neck’ and realistically cast ‘Champagne cork’ stopper which unscrews to reveal a pouring spout for the shaken cocktail. On the interior is a removable clapper which makes the shaker ‘ring’ as you shake, whilst helping with mixing. Signed ASPREY LONDON to the base. English, circa 1930s.
