Know before you buy
No, this shaker is not dishwasher safe. Due to the delicate nature of hand-cut leaded crystal, we recommend hand-washing it with mild soap and warm water to preserve its clarity and brilliance.
The shaker has a capacity of 12.3 fluid ounces, which is ideal for preparing one to two standard-sized cocktails at a time.
The Oxymore Shaker is designed primarily as a decorative and functional piece of crystal barware and is not engineered to be leak-proof. We recommend handling it with care during the shaking process.
No, this model does not feature a weighted base. Its stability comes from the solid, high-quality leaded crystal construction typical of Saint-Louis craftsmanship.
To maintain the crystal's clarity, avoid harsh detergents and abrasive sponges. Always dry the shaker immediately after washing with a soft, lint-free cloth to prevent water spots.
