Based in Solingen, Germany, J A Henckels has been working in metal production since the early-mid 18th century, and developed this striking cocktail shaker set in 1926. A testament to the industrial future, the sleek silver-plated carriage opens at the nose to reveal a shaker with strainer, funnel with stopper and lid, and four graduated shot cups. The undercarriage gently snaps off to reveal four cocktail spoons, and the tail unscrews to act as a bowl for olives or nuts.
