Know before you buy
Like all nickel silver, the top will develop a natural patina over time if left unpolished. To maintain its original shine, simply wipe it down periodically with a soft cloth and a high-quality metal polish.
Yes, the three-piece cobbler design features a secure screw-on lid that creates a tight seal. This ensures you can shake your cocktails vigorously without worrying about leaks or spills.
We recommend hand washing this piece to preserve the integrity of the vintage ruby glass and the finish of the nickel silver top. Harsh detergents and high heat cycles can damage the materials over time.
The integrated strainer is excellent for standard cocktails, effectively catching ice and larger fruit chunks. If you are preparing drinks with fine herbs or heavily muddled ingredients, you may want to use an additional fine-mesh strainer when pouring.
This shaker is designed specifically for cold cocktail preparation. We do not recommend using it with hot liquids, as the thermal shock could potentially crack the vintage glass.
