Silver Plate Cocktail Shakers
George V Silver Plate Cocktail Shaker & Glasses Set
L8584: Made circa 1928 by Maison Desny, this striking and sought after silver plate cocktail set is of a highly architectural Art Deco design. The set comprises a three-piece cocktail shaker and six cocktail coupes, all featuring strong geometric, conical forms and a polished surface. The cocktail shaker measures 10"(25.5cm) tall by 4.25"(11cm) in diameter. Each coupe measures 4.75"(12cm) tall by 2.75"(7cm) in diameter.
Maison Desny (1927-1933) was made up of René Mauny, the principal designer M. Desnet, staff designer Louis Poulain, and the financial backer M. Tricot. The house of Desny was recognised for its innovative and resolutely modern objects, including silverware and barware. Their aesthetic was heavily influenced by Cubism and Modernism, characterised by severe geometric forms and a preference for plain, highly polished surfaces of chromed or nickel-plated metal. Unfortunately, due to political instability in Europe and the death of M. Desnet, the firm closed in 1933
