Summary

Description

Owl cocktail shaker on display as part of the "Jazz Age" exhibit at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland, Ohio, in the United States.

Peer Smed (1878-1943) was born Peer Schmidt in Copenhagen. The son of a blacksmith, he became an expert metalcrafter and produced objects in the Art Nouveau style. He became so famous that he designed silver pieces for the royal families of Denmark and Sweden. Smed visited America from 1903 to 1907. After returning briefly to Denmark, he moved permanently to New York City in 1909, where he started his own studio. He worked in a wide range of metals, including gold, silver, iron copper, and bronze.

Cocktail shakers disguised as sculpture were popular during Prohibition. This silver shaker was made by Smed in 1931.
