A remarkable vintage cocktail shaker- guaranteed 1920-30s era, and classic Art Deco. The material is a very thick walled and heavy red Bakelite- a rare but not unknown variant of the typical chocolate brown or black Bakelite. The top opens as shown to reveal an interesting mesh cover in stainless steel or zinc plated steel This filters the base contents into the upper chamber which has a dual spout (a smaller spout within the outer spout) I assume the assembly is about adding mixers o...r trapping the ice or lemon edge or ???All complete and in excellent vintage condition.
