A timeless addition to the art of gracious entertaining, this elegant pair of vintage sterling silver salt and pepper shakers by Empire Silver Company brings classic American silver craftsmanship to the beautifully appointed table. Featuring a graceful, elongated bell-shaped silhouette, each shaker is elevated on a traditional pedestal base and crowned with a gently domed, pierced screw-on top and decorative finial. Subtle stepped detailing and beautifully polished sterling silver surfaces lend an understated sophistication to their classic design. Both shakers feature original fixed glass liners, thoughtfully designed to separate the contents from the sterling silver. Their weighted bases provide stability, making them as practical as they are beautiful. Equally lovely for everyday dining or special occasions, these elegant shakers complement everything from traditional fine china and antique linens to thoughtfully layered contemporary tablescapes. A beautiful addition to a sterling silver collection, they also make a charming gift for someone who appreciates the enduring pleasures of gracious entertaining. Excellent vintage condition. Beautifully polished sterling silver with light surface wear consistent with age and use. Both original fixed glass liners are intact, with no chips or cracks. No corrosion to the silver. Both original screw-on tops are present.
