Cocktail mixer

Add to album

This cocktail mixer was designed by Alfred Galand in 1935 and made in 1965 by Cristalleries du Val Saint-Lambert in Belgium.

The clear glass cocktail mixer has a three-quarter spherical bowl on a stem. The design is called 'Charente'.

Val Saint-Lambert was set up in 1826 but it was not until the end of the century that it had acquired its status as a pioneering glassmaker through highly original products. After privatisation in 1987, the company management demonstrated its intention in boosting productivity once again by calling on both internal and external designers. Cristalleries du Val Saint-Lambert continues today.
