MINT ART DECO RUBY CRYSTAL "PLYMOUTH" COCKTAIL SHAKER BY FENTON ART GLASS C 1934:
$215.00

Co-founder of Fenton Art Glass (1905-2011) of Williamstown, West Virginia, Frank Fenton designed this Art Deco faceted ruby cocktail shaker in 1933.
The pattern is called "Plymouth" #1620 and features rich, heavy ruby crystal with a multi-paneled bottom half, and an upper band of wide geometric blocks containing circular indentations. As a sign of quality, the bottom has a ground glass rim. It is topped with the more unusual Art Deco domed top with self-strainer and a screw-off cap.
It is 9.75" tall and 3.75" in diameter.
This shaker has been in my personal collection since the mid-1990s and has been very well cared for. It is in mint condition for its 90-plus years of age. TheRuby glass is in flawless condition and the chromium components only show some surface scratches around the bottom rim. No out-of-rounding or loss of chrome plating.
This shaker is shown on page 131 of Walter T. Lemiski's Glass Barware: Deco & Beyond.
