VTG Mid-Century 50s Cocktail Shaker & Glasses Black Gold Carousel Horses Bar Set

For your consideration is a remarkable mid-20th century cocktail shaker set, comprising a tall glass shaker with brass-toned lid and capped pourer, accompanied by five original matching glasses. The decoration is striking: a dramatic carousel tent with galloping horses, executed in bold black enamel and enriched with 24-karat gold gilt highlights. The gilt detailing adds a sense of movement and theatrical flair, perfectly in keeping with the mid-century fascination for glamour, leisure and bold design. This set exemplifies the quality and artistry of mid-century barware, recalling the lavishly decorated glass produced by design houses such as Georges Briard and Culver, renowned for their use of real gold gilding and playful yet sophisticated motifs.
