Know before you buy
The three-piece French design consists of a base, a middle section with a built-in strainer, and a top cap. It functions similarly to a standard cobbler shaker, offering an all-in-one solution that eliminates the need for a separate Hawthorne strainer.
To preserve the polished finish, hand wash the shaker with mild soap and warm water, then dry it immediately with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals, and use a high-quality silver polish occasionally to remove any natural tarnish.
Yes, the components are designed to fit snugly to prevent leaks while shaking. However, because this is a vintage-style piece, it is recommended to hold the cap firmly in place while shaking to ensure a secure seal.
This shaker features the official Walker & Hall impressed markings. These stamps are the standard indicator of the manufacturer's heritage and authenticity as a British silversmith.
No, silver-plating is a standard material for high-end barware and is inert, meaning it will not impart any metallic flavor to your drinks. It is perfectly safe for use with all types of spirits and mixers.
