A French Art Deco cocktail pick set in the form a large chrome snail on a mahogany base. The design is by famed French Art Deco illustrator Benjamin Rabier, who enjoyed a lucrative side job designing entertaining barware. The twelve picks have red bakelite finials that resemble cherries. Cocktail pick holders (“porte-piques”) were once a fixture of every Parisian bar and café. Today, they can be used at home to spear olives, cherries, or onions for a cocktail or to serve small hors d’oeuvres.
