just when you think a simple item can't be reinvented anymore, true design proves you wrong.
Salt and Pepper shakers are my new vice. I must have them all. Especially those cute birdies!
i have a pair o shakers in the shape of two datschunds, can any one identify those for me?
I'm not sure I like any other sale and pepper shaker better than this one:

My girlfriend got it for me for my birthday and it is still probably one of my most favorite home goods that I own. So simple, cute, and beautiful form.
bakelite s&p shakers are some of the sleekest and simplest imo.

shlacking, i have those too!! love those little guys. we have them sitting in a silver michael aram banana leaf on the table. it kinda looks like they're slow dancing in a little boat.
haha yea they're so great. I almost feel guilty breaking their embrace to salt my fries or pepper my eggs.
... or perhaps something a little more debauched:

Ha! My boyfriend is studying biochemistry...and I JUST bought him the chemistry Na Cl and Pe (Pe)r shakers LAST night! Funny!
I bought the Chiasso salt & pepper shakers (at the top of the page) a while back and they are terrible. The top silver one wobbles and doesn't stay in the bottom one. I guess that's what you get for $8.
