A lovely Art Deco style Penguin shaker. Mid Century. It was tough to capture photos without picking up other items in the room/reflections. This piece is a true silver tone. We've seen this shaker listed elsewhere referencing the 1930s but our research indicates this shaker dates to the late 1940s / early 1950s. It's extremely heavy in weight and 12" tall. Please note: this is not vintage Restoration Hardware as it's a completely different style: the handle placement, the feet, the section where the lid meets the body of the shaker) and it also has a "ribbed" pattern along the lid and cap. The "fins" stick out slightly from the body of the shaker. Truly a magical vintage mixer.

Measurements: Approximately 12" tall

Hallmarks / Era: None / Mid Century

Condition: Very good vintage condition overall with mild signs of age. No dents or dings. There's a good amount of tarnish (we have not polished this piece). This piece shows mild signs of age and what we refer to as general surface wear that can include micro-fine scratches here and there. There are two what we refer to as small "age spots" right where the feet meet the body of the shaker (see photos) as well as one tiny spot on the head (very small, the size of a pinhead). The interior is clean overall but does show mild signs of age. The nickle-plating is vibrant overall. In short, this piece is in good vintage condition overall with mild signs of age and tarnish. Truly a stunning shaker that displays beautifully. Cheers!
