Bakelite Salt and pepper shakers

This set of antique butterscotch Bakelite salt and pepper shakers is a beautiful nod to the early days of modern plastics.
 
Crafted during the Art Deco era when Bakelite revolutionized household design, these shakers feature the highly sought-after, deep honey-golden hue known as "butterscotch."
 
Available at £12 for the pair, the set showcases a simple, elegant silhouette with iconic screw-top lids and clean geometric lines characteristic of the period. Their warm, tactile quality and smooth finish make them incredibly pleasing to handle.
 
Whether you are an avid collector of early plastics, a fan of Art Deco kitchenware, or simply looking to add a touch of authentic vintage styling to your dining table, this set is a delightful and affordable piece of history.
 
Tip: To preserve the beautiful, natural patina of vintage Bakelite, avoid using dishwashers or harsh chemical cleaners. A gentle wipe with a damp cloth and a soft buff will keep them shining for years to come.
