Undiminished Elegance
A real piece of history: a hand restored Soda Siphon from the ‘roaring twenties’ is a luxury artefact as well as a nod to one of the most fascinating and elegant eras of all time. These exclusive Sparklets Soda Siphons from New York, Paris, London and Berlin are restored by hand in Germany and each one arrives with full details of its unique history. Not only the year of production, but also the city it was built in and the place where it was found before the restoration are cited in the certificate of authenticity.
