An absolutely stunning huge cocktail shaker in American sterling silver by the Boston silversmith, Tuttle.This towering example towers 14" tall with a diameter measuring 4 1/2" and weighing in at 36.70 Troy ounces or 1141.4 Grams, over a kilo of sterling silver!

The Roman numeral under the crescent indicates on what year of the presidency the piece was produced.
The mark is completed by the pine tree, a patriotic symbol taken from the ancient Pine Tree Shilling of Massachusetts colony.
This piece is marked HT for Harry Truman and the Roman numeral I underneath for the year 1945.
