Give this Mason jar a shot

A dishy design This pretty plate with Asian-inspired ginkgo blossoms is created with a wax relief technique that makes it more crafty than Crate & Barrel. Use the stoneware for display or that second helping of dumplings.

Eric Prim and Josh Williams were college roommates, both with Southern roots, who found themselves hosting many a cocktail party and improvising with a Mason jar as their cocktail shaker.

A few years later, after raising funds on Kickstarter, the Mason Shaker was born in their design studio in Brooklyn. And a very clever design it is, with both metric and Imperial markings on the 32-ounce jar, and a cap that measures exactly one shot.
