And the only way to conjure that exemplary cordial is by putting the proper antique or vintage barware to work.

From a design standpoint, some barware, such as our array of Art Deco glass whiskey sets or mid-century modern silver-banded tumblers crafted by Dorothy Thorpe, can help position your bar as a bold and attractive centerpiece to a room.

Questions About Shell Cocktail Shaker
  • What is the best cocktail shaker?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021
    There are many brands of cocktail shakers – the best cocktail shaker is a matter of preference. However, the Boston shaker is considered to be the best cocktail shaker because of its large capacity and efficiency. You can use it for shaking or stirring a cocktail. As it's a multi-tasker, it is very popular. Shop a variety of antique cocktail shakers on 1stDibs.
  • What is a Parisian cocktail shaker?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    A Parisian cocktail shaker is a shaker that has a bottom and a removable top. In this way, the design is similar to that of a cobbler shaker. However, the Parisian shaker doesn’t have the strainer found in most cobblers. Shop a range of cocktail shakers on 1stDibs.
  • What are the two types of cocktail shakers?
    1 Answer
    1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    There are many types of cocktail shakers, but the two most common are the Boston shaker and the Cobbler shaker. A Cobbler shaker features a built-in strainer to make pouring drinks simple for the novice bartender. The Boston shaker does not have a strainer.
