An early to mid 20th century American Gorham silver plated, copper and brass novelty artillery shell cocktail shaker, huge size, modelled as a very detailed fac-simile of the World War One eighteen-pounder shrapnel shell, in three sections, the top opening to reveal the strainer, the base containing a framework with four shot glasses. Marked "FAC-SIMILE EIGHTEEN POUNDER SHRAPNEL SHELL" and "Patent Applied for America and Foreign Countries", made by Gorham Silver Company (important American manufacturer) to the undereside, this makes a wonderful gift for a cocktail enthusiast or collector.
