The streamlined form of the Zeppelin airship, served as the model for this most elegant of cocktail shakers. Everything required of the host was contained within the shaker including a flask, strainer/juicer, corkscrew, funnel and four graduated shot cups and spoons. When unscrewed, the tail section became a nut dish.
