Vintage Pair of George II Silver Salts
Made in 1758, in the final years of George II’s reign, this pair of silver salts has been passing the seasoning for more than two and a half centuries. Each rests on three curved feet beneath a gently crimped rim, with an engraved crest on the side and a gilded interior, a practical touch that kept the salt from tarnishing the silver while making every pinch feel a little more golden. Set them at either end of the table with flaky sea salt, or fill them with peppercorns, and let them hold court as they always have.
Dimensions: 3 x 1.75in
Material: Silver
Care: Wipe with a soft, damp cloth
