Penguin Cocktail Shaker, silver plate. After Emile Schülke, Au Bain Marie Paris
Located in Knivsta, SE
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.
