ABOUT PRODUCTID 11281
This set of two Polish salt shakers from the 1970s exemplifies the late modernist approach to everyday objects. Each vessel features a clear, transparent glass body with a subtle greenish tint characteristic of vintage glass from the era. The square bases with gently rounded vertical edges offer both stability and a softened geometric profile. The smooth, glossy surface of the glass reflects light and emphasizes the restrained design language. Each shaker is topped with a domed, silver-tone metal cap with a mirror-like finish, threaded for easy removal and refilling. There are no manufacturer markings or decorative embellishments, underscoring a focus on pure function and clean lines. The proportions are balanced: the height slightly exceeds the width, ensuring a cohesive and robust construction. Condition: good, with minor surface scratches and slight wear to the metal caps, but no chips or cracks.These unassuming salt shakers carry the quiet voice of Polish 1970s modernism. Their minimalist shape and transparency speak of an era that valued rationality and accessibility. The interplay of glass and metal tells a story of everyday rituals—of a shared table where utility and simplicity mattered more than ornament. These vessels have witnessed countless meals and conversations, remaining in the background yet always ready to fulfill their purpose.The set can be used on a classic wooden dining table as well as in a contemporary kitchen setting. It pairs well with tableware featuring simple lines, glass pitchers, or ceramics in muted tones. Consider combining the shakers with minimalist accessories—stainless steel cutlery, linen napkins—their neutrality allows them to integrate seamlessly into a variety of styles, from austere modernism to eclectic, collectors’ interiors.
