Description With Tilt Pour Action From our Barware collection, we are pleased to offer this Asprey silver plated Cocktail Shaker. The cocktail shaker made in three sections with a top lid, pouring spout with lid and the main body. The cocktail shaker beautifully formed in silver plate and stamped to the base by world renowned London manufacture Asprey of London A & Co. The Cocktail Shaker dates to the Art Deco period Circa 1935. Asprey was established in 1781 by William Asprey in central London. Asprey advertised ‘articles of exclusive design and high quality, whether for personal adornment or personal accompaniment and to endow with richness and beauty the table and homes of people of refinement and discernment.’ The company grew and began to acquire several manufacturing facilities and hired silversmiths, goldsmiths, jewellers and watchmakers including Ernest Betjeman. In 1859, Asprey bought ‘Edwards’, a Royal Warrant holder and award winning dressing case maker. In 1862 Asprey was granted its first Royal Warrant by Queen Victoria and the company enjoyed a long relationship with various members of the British Royal Family.
