Penguin Decanter Music Box

around 1960

Waddle you have? This charming art deco-style penguin decanter also has a music box hidden in the bottom. What better mascot than a penguin with its elegant natural tuxedo suggesting the good life. Wind it up and each time you pour a drink, the tune “How Dry I Am” plays. The decanter is made of stainless steel, plastic and glass, with gold swirling detailing throughout the glass. The penguin’s head comes off to reveal a chrome-plated cork stopper. Tise mid-century bar decanter was made in Japan and imported to North America for sale.
