This delightful pair of retro 1970s ceramic salt & pepper shakers features embossed folk-art style fish motifs, accented with dark brown glazing and hand-tooled dot detailing. The warm caramel glaze and tall cylindrical shape give them a cozy, rustic feel perfect for a farmhouse or cottage kitchen. Measuring approx. 2¾” high x 1½” wide, they are compact and full of character. Each piece still has its original plastic stopper and displays the charming, slightly irregular glazing typical of 1970s studio-style imports. A sweet addition to any table setting, retro collection, or kitchen vignette. During the late 1960s–1970s, ceramic tableware embraced earthy tones, folk motifs, and whimsical embossing inspired by Scandinavian and Japanese design. Fish motifs symbolized abundance, good luck, and domestic prosperity — making pieces like these popular souvenirs and kitchen gifts. Folk-art embossing like this was commonly used in mid-century European kitchens and carried into American rustic décor trends
