sculptural salt and peppers

i really need to do a round up post of the best salt and pepper shakers i’ve seen, because there are so many good ones, but for now take a look at this earthenware sal& set from uk designer caterina fadda.

caterina_fadda_sal_&

i appreciate how the pepper shaker nestles into the salt, and the fact that this can stand alone as a mini sculpture on the table, with nothing in it at all!

available for £21.50 (us $44) at the hidden art shop, and they ship around the globe.

    hi evisu,

    they are not actually attached so you can select whichever seasoning you like!

    nice to see you!

    What a fun salt and pepper set. If you like nesting ceramics, you should check out http://saengerporcelain.com/cat_ser1.html
    Saenger is an amazing ceramicist, and I got one of his teapots for my husband for our first X-mas together.

    Yeah, thought you’d like those. I really want one of the sake sets too. I love the little quail look to them. Too bad I don’t drink sake. Maybe I could “force” myself to find some other use for them.
