ABOUT PRODUCTID 152
The salt and pepper shakers designed by Pierre Forssell for Swedish brand Gense date from the 1990s, representing a reinterpretation of a form originally created in the mid-20th century. The set is characterized by minimalist conical silhouettes crafted from cool, highly polished metal with a mirror-like finish, paired with a black base made of plastic or bakelite. Discreetly engraved letters 'S' and 'P' distinguish each piece, while visible rivets at the base emphasize precision craftsmanship and an industrial undertone. The salt shaker measures 11 cm in height with a diameter of 4.5 cm, and the pepper shaker stands 9 cm tall with a diameter of 3.5 cm. Both are preserved in very good condition, showing only minor surface scratches and a subtle patina, without any significant damage.This duo speaks to the legacy of Scandinavian design, where geometry and function are united with restrained elegance. The metallic cones evoke the spirit of postwar modernism—every detail is intentional, and form is guided by the ritual of daily use. The polished surface reflects light like a sheet of water, while the contrast of the black base pays homage to clear composition. These are objects that might whisper of minimalist tables from the 1950s and the ongoing Swedish tradition of simplicity, still relevant in the 1990s.The Forssell set may be displayed on a contemporary table of light wood or refined veined marble, fitting seamlessly into both pared-back Scandinavian interiors and eclectic vintage collections. It can be paired with geometric porcelain, steel cutlery, or glass carafes. Combining it with natural-toned textiles and simple tableware will highlight its graphic lines and timeless quality.
