Description
This salt and pepper set features simple drawings of a young chicken and a hen on a branch created by our children, who are very attached to our backyard chickens. Since we began producing products with the Peep and Twig patterns in 2015, we have donated 25% of its sales to CASA, an incredibly dedicated charity that supports children in need. We believe strongly in giving back to our community in many ways and wanted to create these ornaments that are “for kids, by kids” to show our children one way they can help others.
The salt and pepper shakers are a whimsical complement to any table. Three small holes mark the Twig shaker while the Peep shaker has four holes. The shakers are easy to fill and have a white flexible rubber stopper on the underside.
The intricate patterns on the salt and pepper shakers were drawn and then hand carved. The shakers were thrown on the potter’s wheel and then finished and assembled when partially dry. After a bisque firing to 1900 degrees, glazes are applied with bulb syringes to different sections of the work, giving a cloisonné-like effect. All work is made of stoneware clay and fired to over 2100 degrees.
Size: 2.25″ wide x 3.75″ tall
The clay and glazes are lead-free and food safe.
