Description
These mushroom salt and pepper shakers bring a little woodland charm to the table: a pair of ceramic toadstools sitting side by side on their own white ceramic tray. Each shaker has a rounded red cap scattered with white spots, set on a white stalk with fine ridges running down it, just like a real toadstool. The two caps are pierced with a different number of holes, so once they are filled you can tell salt from pepper at a glance. The set is 15cm long, 6.6cm wide and 7cm tall, and weighs 0.295KG.
Small enough for the middle of a breakfast table yet bright enough to raise a smile, they sit happily on a dining table, a kitchen worktop or a shelf beside the bread bin. The red and white colouring lifts a plain white place setting and suits a cottage kitchen, a country style dining room or a home with a fondness for folk and woodland motifs. They work just as well for everyday meals as for a relaxed Sunday brunch, and between meals they double as a little toadstool ornament that keeps the table looking cheerful.
Each shaker is ceramic with a silicone stopper at the base. Ease the stopper out to refill with table salt or ground pepper, then push it back into place. The matt white ceramic tray has two shallow round recesses that hold the shakers neatly, keeping the pair together for easy storage and display. As with any ceramic tableware, we suggest wiping the shakers and tray with a soft damp cloth and letting them dry fully before you refill. Set them out for a weekend breakfast, or wrap them up as a cheerful present for someone who loves a toadstool.
