Sources for 1/6 scale cocktail glasses/ bar ware?

Postby Geektopian » Wed Sep 28, 2011 9:48 pm

As the two of you who read Claire's Big World know, our little pink-hair heroine is quite fond of martinis. Even better, all of "her" recipes really do work and are checked and approved here in the test kitchen at Chez Mlatch (and thank you Spell Check for helping the "test subject" seem vaguely coherent after another round of testing). :lol:

ANYWAY, Claire is never pictured on the blog with any glassware or bar ware that would suggest she's the one doing the drinking because I don't have any for her. I recall that there was a line of such stuff being sold on eBay a few years ago but I wondered if anyone could point me to some specific sets or manufactures that might be useful. Specifically, I'd like to find some classic martini glasses and possible a steel cocktail shaker. Even better would be miniature bottles of her chosen brands of spirits (Tanqueray London Dry Gin, Skyy Vodka, Noilly Prat Dry Vermouth and Lillet Blanc) but I realize that might be asking too much.

I'd prefer to avoid making any of these items from scratch and would love to find a source for ready made, ready to use items.

Those were from Gloria bar sets- there were a full-scale bar shown here
and then two sets with bottles and glasses. The 'bottles' you see on the shelves in the bar are just printies, sadly. Everything else is really nice, if *really* pink. This set repaints very nicely-I've seen some lovely customs with it.
Both bottle and glass sets shown here.
Don't know how many of the bottle shapes might be useful, but they're a possibility.

Check party and cake decorating supply stores. Before Re Ment cake decorating sections were about the only place to find some stuff. The Japanese dollhouse books show making molds of anything, usually wooden, bottle and glass shaped then casting clear resin versions.

Drinks wise the old Megahouse Let's Drink! set has the best bottles.

As long as my dolls don't see this set. Them going drunk is a bad idea.

Would this shakerdo? You might want to keep and eye out for jewellery charms where the shaker is concern
