This Wilhelm Wolff cocktail shaker and coordinating bitters bottle combine rich green crystal with clear decorative cuts and silver-plated fittings. Elongated facets and rounded cuts create a lively play of light, giving the matching silhouettes plenty of sparkle—even before the first cocktail.
The shaker includes a removable silver-plated strainer top and cap, while the bitters bottle has a slender dispensing spout. Together, they bring color, texture, and a little ceremony to the drinks trolley.
Sold as a two-piece set.
