CARAFE - FLASK OF SERVICE - SHAKER IN BACCARÀT CRYSTAL, WITH ITS ORIGINAL STOPPER

Timeless elegance and exceptional craftsmanship characterize this superb and LARGE SHAKER in cut crystal, intended for serving spirits or for cocktail preparation. Its sober, refined design highlights a deep vertical cut that admirably catches the light and underscores the crystal’s purity.

equipped with two subtly integrated pouring spouts at the neck, it offers precise pouring and testifies to a design that is as aesthetic as it is functional. Its original stopper, perfectly fitted, completes the ensemble harmoniously.

The number 37 engraved on the stopper corresponds to the artisanal pairing number of the crystalworks, which is also engraved on the bottom of the Shaker not far from the BACCARAT France stamp. This model was manufactured between the late 1930s and the 1950s (During this period, artisans continued to individually adjust the stoppers on pieces with complex shapes while applying the brand’s new signature).

With its substantial weight of almost 2 kg, whether as a whiskey carafe, spirit bottle, or elegant bar accessory, this piece will appeal to connoisseurs of fine table arts and high-quality crystal. Displayed on a bar cabinet, a sideboard, or a reception table, it will add a touch of distinction and refinement.

Note! a very fine light scratch, visible under magnification, and fine scratches present on the stopper (friction with the shaker): see the last 3 photos. Nevertheless, this does not detract from its beauty and history, because “the crystal remains sublime despite its vulnerability.”

A piece of excellent quality, decorative and functional, which will naturally find its place in a prestigious BACCARAT collection.
