Description
These salt and pepper shakers are made of grey stoneware and sit together as one round piece on a bamboo tray. Two of the stoneware pieces are shakers, each with small holes pierced through its top, and the third is a lidded pot with a small spoon that rests through a hole in its lid. Fitted side by side, the three wedge shapes form a neat cylinder 11cm across and 11cm tall, so everything you season with at the table stays in one small footprint. The speckled grey surface gives the stoneware a soft, earthy look.
It belongs in the middle of the kitchen or dining table, where everyone can reach it, or on the worktop beside where you cook. Fill the two shakers with salt and pepper, and keep the lidded pot for flaky salt, chilli flakes or a spice blend you would rather take by the spoonful. Because all three pieces stand on one tray, they lift and move together, which suits a breakfast table that is cleared every morning, a family supper or a long weekend lunch when the table fills with dishes. It makes a thoughtful gift for someone setting up a first kitchen, too.
The shakers and pot are stoneware and the tray is bamboo. None of it goes in the microwave or the oven, so keep it for the table and the worktop. The maker gives a capacity of 110ml and a weight of 0.484KG. The lid of the pot lifts right off with the spoon left standing inside, so topping it up is quick, and the three pieces are separate, so each can be lifted off the tray and passed along the table on its own. To style it, set the bamboo tray near a wooden chopping board or bread board, and pair the grey stoneware with plain everyday tableware so it looks at home at every meal.
