This set of vintage salt and pepper containers features a distinctive design with cherub figures. The pieces combine clear crystal bases with dark metal sculptural elements, creating a striking contrast in materials and forms.
Each container is constructed with a faceted crystal double-dish base, designed to hold salt and pepper. Rising from the centre of each base is a detailed metal figure of an angel or cherub, finished in a dark, patinated tone. The crystal bases feature a starburst pattern cut into the underside, adding texture and reflecting light.
These pieces show signs of age and use, with one of the metal figures missing a wing. The metal has a natural patina, and the crystal bases remain functional.
These decorative tableware items would suit a classic or eclectic dining setting. They offer a unique, sculptural approach to table accessories, blending functional design with figurative art.
