Cartier, New York
An extraordinarily rare and ingenious Art Deco Sterling silver travelling cocktail set by Cartier New York, comprising of two, 2-pint capacity spirit flasks, flanking a central covered container, which ‘assembles’ into a long-necked cocktail shaker, with dual integral strainer and juicer, and knurled screw-cap perfect for use as a spirit measure, and 6 silver shot cups for serving (only four shown). All component parts marked Cartier and STERLING, and bearing registration numbers. In a bespoke, fitted three door long-grain burgundy leather Cartier presentation case. Each element of the set features a beautiful but discreet Art Deco monogram.
Height of set: 8½ inches (22 cm)
An example of this design was exhibited in March 2015 at ‘Brilliant: Cartier in the 20th Century’, an exhibition held at the Denver Art Museum in the United States and featured in the book accompanying the exhibition.
