Penguin Cocktail Shaker in Silver-Plated Metal, After Emile Schülke, Au Bain Marie Paris An irresistibly charming penguin-form cocktail shaker, based on the iconic design originally conceived by Emile Schülke in 1936. This example was produced by the renowned Parisian firm Au Bain Marie during the 1970s–1980s, faithfully honoring the spirit of the original Art Deco creation. Executed entirely in silver-plated metal, the shaker is sculptural and playful, yet elegantly balanced in its proportions. The stylized penguin form—both whimsical and refined—has become an enduring classic of cocktail and barware design. The hinged beak opens smoothly for pouring, while the body separates neatly for filling and cleaning, combining visual delight with practical functionality. Equally suited as a functional cocktail accessory or as a sculptural decorative object, this penguin shaker...

The Podstakannik (Russian: подстака́нник, literally "thing under the glass"), or tea glass holder, is a holder with a handle, made of silver plate that holds a drinking glass (stakan). Their primary purpose is to be able to hold a very hot glass of tea, which is usually consumed right after it is brewed. The stability of the glass on the table is also significantly improved. It is a traditional way of serving and drinking tea in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, and other Slavic states. History Podstakanniks appeared in Russian tea culture in the late 18th century, when drinking tea became common in Russia. Very soon they became not just practical utensils, but also works of art, just like samovars that were used for boiling water. Expensive podstakanniks for the rich and the elite were made of silver; however, they were not very practical, since they would get quite hot very quickly due to the high thermal conductivity of silver. By the 20th century, podstakanniks became very widespread. They were found extremely useful on railroads, as tea was served in moving carriages that were shaking. A bare glass was more likely to fall, scalding people with hot tea. The Russian railroads still use the podstakannik extensively in sleeper carriages. Production In the Soviet Union they were made mostly from nickel silver, cupronickel, and other alloys with nickel, silver, or gold plating. Though in modern times, simple tea cups or mugs are typically used by Russians at home, podstakanniks continue to be widely used for serving tea on the Russian Railways, since they provide more safety while drinking or carrying tea on a moving train. Most Russian tea glass holders...
