Vintage Mini Sterling Silver Salt and Pepper Shakers by Lord Silver
This is a set of 3 pairs of sterling silver salt and pepper shakers made by Lord Silver in their original box. Three of the shakers have larger holes, presumably for pepper. Each shaker weighs .23 ounces (6.52 grams) without the plastic liner. The set of shakers are in their original box with an acetate lid. A paper insert inside advertises a non corrosive plastic liner in each shaker. This complete set of shakers was purchased by my grandfather when he went to England and Scotland in the late seventies. They have never been used.
I have chosen not to clean or polish these items. I love the beauty of the aged finish and patina and will leave it up to the buyer to clean and polish.
