I like the old Tipp City shakers. Both my mom and my grandma had a set of salt & pepper shakers and I managed to save them but my favorite pattern is the cattails. While searching for a cattail set I found this cute little sugar shaker...
This larger pair belonged to my mom, I still use them...
This set belonged to my grandma and they sit beside my moms pair...
And unexpectedly sitting on a bottom shelf in an antique shop last winter I spotted this!
Just what I was looking for, the set of 4 with the carrier. They look like they have never been used. Not a chip or scratch anywhere. I guess if you have patience eventually you will find what you are looking for. I could have bought a set online but I missed out, they were not as nice as these yet still the same price. I'm very happy I missed them after all because I have these instead!

Linking with Faded Charm for White Wednesday.
Thanks Kathleen!
I remember having similar shakers when I was growing up... I SURE WISH I had them now! These are wonderful!

I love these! Now I guess I will be on the hunt for a set!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've seen these ever-the details are pretty cool-I guess I notice the plain ones usually-Happy WW
