Description
Starting off the party is a pair of Avon Lilac Foaming Bath Oil bottles repurposed as novelty salt and pepper shakers, dressed in white milk glass with bold purple and green floral graphics and those signature cream dome tops - yes, Avon called, they want their bath oil back, but these are too cute to return. These chunky beauties measure approximately 4 inches tall and are in good vintage condition with original Avon labels intact on the bases reading Lilac Foaming Bath Oil, 3 FL OZ, Avon Prod. Inc. N.Y. N.Y. 10020.
Next up are two adorable blue ceramic kneeling praying child figurines that moonlight as salt and pepper shakers, standing just a couple inches tall with sweet folded hands and soft blue-grey glazed finish - Sunday school never looked so seasoned.
Rounding out the novelty trio is a pair of sleek modern black goblet-style shakers with cream perforated plastic tops and brushed silver pedestal bases, giving off serious mid-century cocktail lounge energy in the most unexpected way.
The star of the antique corner is a petite glass and silver-tone salt and pepper set seated on an ornate embossed metal tray with scrollwork detailing - the ribbed glass bodies and aged metal screw tops suggest early-to-mid 20th century origins, and the tray shows beautiful patina that only time can deliver.
The remaining lot includes an enormous supporting cast of shakers in every style imaginable: basic restaurant-style glass sets, shell-shaped clear glass minis, a wooden pepper mill, a chrome and crystal multi-piece condiment caddy, amber glass footed shakers, small grenade-shaped glass minis, a large chrome diner-style multi-hole shaker set, and numerous additional loose glass and plastic shakers in varying sizes and conditions. Some are empty, some have remnants of contents, and a few are missing lids - but together they form the ultimate collector starter kit or the most extra table setting in the tri-state area.
