This pair of Edwardian table salts consists of two open salt cellars, dating from 1910 in the Edwardian style. Each piece combines a clear cut glass bowl with a polished sterling silver collar rim. The decorative elements include a detailed cut glass starburst pattern across the body and base, accompanied by hallmarks stamped directly onto the silver rim. Signs of age appear as gentle tarnishing and surface wear on the silver metal bands, alongside minor handling marks. Measuring 3 cm high, 5 cm wide, and 5 cm deep, each compact cellar sits easily on small surfaces. Placed on a dining table center, these pieces function effectively to hold seasonings during family meals or dinner parties.

FAQs

Open salt cellars are small tabletop vessels designed to hold loose salt before the invention of anti-caking agents enabled modern salt shakers. During the Edwardian era, these vessels were standard features of formal dining service, allowing guests to take salt using a small spoon or fingertips.

Edwardian table salts were commonly constructed using a combination of heavy lead cut glass or crystal bases fitted with sterling silver collars, mounts, or linings. Pure silver bowls were also produced, often fitted with blue glass liners to protect the metal from chemical corrosion.

Authentic pieces feature British hallmarks stamped onto the metal rim or collar, consisting of a makers mark, town mark, fineness mark (such as the lion passant for sterling silver), and a date letter corresponding to the Edwardian period between 1901 and 1910.

These small vessels can be integrated into modern dining settings to serve boutique sea salts, spices, or condiments. Alternatively, interior designers place them on sideboards, dressing tables, or vanity trays to store delicate jewellery pieces such as rings.

Salt should be emptied after use to prevent corrosion of the metal components. Wash the glass carefully by hand using warm water and mild soap, ensuring silver collars are wiped dry immediately and polished gently with a dedicated silver cloth to remove oxidisation.
