DescriptionThis glass salt or pepper shaker includes a metal lid with a narrowed, tapered point at the top, further emphasizing the overall teardrop form of the glass body. The upper portion of the glass body is narrow, spanning downwards into a widened, rounded form. The underside of the shaker reveals a hexagonal, flower-shaped base, in which all six arced sides are reflected on the central body as vertically spanning panels.
