<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lucille.b, post: 10090453, member: 51&quot;]Grabbed photo below online, I don&#039;t have photos of mine yet.&nbsp; Found this exact cocktail shaker last summer, marked Hawkes Sterling.</p><p><br /></p><p>Mine is pristine as far as no chips, no dents, however there is one problem.&nbsp; If you know how these work, the lid is a strainer and if I&#039;m understanding it correctly, is actually is two pieces. The very top inch or so is a lid that (I assume) should pull or screw off.&nbsp; Well on mine, it is stuck.&nbsp; If someone told me it had been glued shut, I&#039;d believe them. It&#039;s really on there and I even questioned whether it was supposed to come off, but thinking how else would this work?&nbsp; I don&#039;t want to turn too hard as it&#039;s sterling after all and don&#039;t want to dent anything.</p><p><br /></p><p>I tried putting the lid upside in mug of hot water --nothing.&nbsp; Later I thought maybe I should immerse the whole top section in water, that will be today&#039;s experiment.&nbsp; No reason not too, right? I can always polish.&nbsp;&nbsp; Any other tricks?&nbsp; Rubbing alcohol okay with sterling?&nbsp; Thanks.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]506494[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
