A Salt Cellar. Nice project I started to make four of them. Jul 23 2021.
I have a fascination with salt pigs or salt cellars. Either my spoons are missing or the fluted edge was used to sprinkle the salt. A salt cellar also called a salt dish salt-box and a salt pig and have been documented as early as classical Rome but culinary enthusiasts and collectors still swear by them.
What is your recommended salt cellar or salt pig.
The base is sycamore and the lid is purpleheartYou can. Either my spoons are missing or the fluted edge was used to sprinkle the salt. The salt cellar was given to the head of the table at the beginning of a meal and subsequently passed around the table in an almost ceremonious style. Jul 23 2021.
