United Cruet Sets

Ebony and Ivory Together Forever in the Salt and Pepper Dolly

Did you know that a salt and pepper shaker is also called a cruet? I didn’t--guess you learn something new every day! This salt and pepper Dolly is a spice shaker that combines what are normally two separate units into one.

The salt and pepper Dolly is ergonomically shaped so that it is comfortable to hold--making dispensing your condiments easy. It contains two individualized internal chambers (that you refill at the bottom).

The ceramic salt and pepper Dolly was created by Tokyo-based designer Ross McBride for Danish brand Normann Copenhagen.
