A lovely vintage Towle Penguin shaker, circa 1980s. The "top hat" comes off and serves as a jigger to pour shots/spirits. The detailing of this figural shaker is pretty magical, from the top hat design, to the penguin's beak, to his tuxedo suit and buttons. It was nearly impossible to capture good photos due to how shiny the silver-plating is. The "red" you see in the first two photos are from Christmas decor in the room being reflected on the silver-plating. Heavier in weight, this shaker has a nice solid feel to it. Truly a neat Art Deco inspired shaker.
Measurements: Approximately 10" tall
Hallmarks: "Towle" can be found on the bottom of the shaker
Condition: Excellent condition. This shaker appears to be NOS (new old stock) and doesn't appear to have been used. It still has its original sticker "Towle" on the bottom.
**Please Note: we typically do not test our shakers for leakage. We offer a variety of vintage shakers (both usable as well as collectible/display only). We are happy to put our shaker through a thorough leakage test (which involves filling it with liquid and rigorously shaking it) -- please message us if you'd like us to test this particular shaker. Cheers!
**On shipping: We take our packaging very seriously and carefully wrap all pieces well to ensure safe delivery. If you buy multiple pieces/sets, we will combine shipping if possible (glassware sets typically ship in their own box to ensure safe arrival) and will reimburse you for any shipping overages.
****Important to note pre-purchase: Buyers, please examine all photos carefully as we cannot accept returns due to the fragile nature (the possibility of breakage or damage when being shipped back) of our vintage/antique pieces.
