It's the Bar Keeper's friend

When people mention the word "Zeppelin," thoughts of the legendary British rock band might spring to mind, or maybe 1937's fiery Hindenburg crash. Not so for Joe Keeper, who owns Bar Keeper, a one-of-a-kind barware shop in Silver Lake's Sunset Junction. He dreams of a vintage 1928 silver-plated cocktail shaker shaped like a dirigible, one of barware collectors' "holy grails."
