A rare vintage "Rocket Ship" cocktail shaker. Circa 1960s. This sleek Chrome shaker features 4 pieces that includes the bottom, the lid, the strainer (that's removable), and the cap -- and mimics a "rocket ship" in shape. It balances perfectly upright when not in use. It was tough to capture photos as the Chrome is so vibrant and shiny. Truly a stunning figural cockail shaker.
Measurements: Approx. 10 1/2" in length
Hallmarks: None
Condition: Good vintage condition overall with mild but noticeable signs of age/wear. The Chrome is vibrant and in very good shape overall. There are no dents. We like to be thorough when it comes to our vintage pieces, so here's a full summary:
1) This piece has minor general surface wear (i.e. from handling, past storage, etc) to the Chrome exterior that includes micro fine scratches and noticeable scrapes
2) There's minor "age" and wear to the bottom interior of the shaker (see photo)
3) There's mild tarnish to the interior lid and cap area
4) There's mild surface wear to the bottom of the shaker
In short, this shaker is in good vintage condition overall but does show signs of age. Truly a cool figural cocktail shaker.
