DescriptionThis pair of salt and pepper shakers includes a cylindrical metal top, each with holes on its top surface. One shaker includes a hexagonal base, with all six sides reflected in vertically spanning panels through the central surface of the glass body. The shaker's surface also includes many small, decorative segments of horizontal and vertical hatching. The other shaker encompasses a more rounded base in contrast to the sharper edges of the hexagonal shaker, but still appears to include various panels across the glass body.
