Brass Montgomery Jigger

Shiny little hourglass with etched initials and clean, ringed sides.

This silver-plated brass Montgomery jigger from the Ralph Lauren RL-City Modern line is by Ralph Lauren. A jigger is a small measuring cup used by bartenders to pour exact quantities of spirits, and it is commonly shaped like an hourglass with two sizes. Mirror-bright double measure with a broad cup at the top, a slimmer cup below and a pinched center. Evenly spaced grooves run around the sides, and engraved letters sit inside the upper rim. It is 2.75 inches high and 2.25 in diameter.

Compact enough for a pocket, handsome enough for a bar.
