The vintage Westmark Cuby is a classic handheld manual ice crusher originally produced in West Germany. First introduced around 1964, this tool was designed for the quick, small-scale crushing of ice cubes needed for cocktails, iced tea, and long drinks.
Design and Features
Mechanism: It operates using a "nutcracker" style press with internal metal teeth that shred the ice when the handles are squeezed together.
Material: Built from high-quality die-cast aluminium, typically finished with a polished or food-grade protective coating.
Compact Size: It measures approximately 17.5 cm (6.9 inches) in length, making it a space-saving alternative to bulkier countertop crank models.
Longevity: The design is so effective that Westmark still produces a modern version (Model #1200) that remains virtually unchanged from the original vintage aesthetic
