The average kitchen is equipped with salt and pepper shakers, so the duo is a common project for designers to tackle. Conceived by Anoop M. of Cochin, India, this pair embodies a contemporary flair that is quite unique.
First of all, the creator decided to make the vessels transparent so that the user can keep an eye on the volume of the seasonings inside. Perhaps modeled on the familiar diner-style dispensers, these ones take conical shapes and feature vertical ribbing details. That tactile feature of Anoop M.'s salt and pepper shakers extrapolates from the formal manipulation of the glass, however. Instead, the containers are encased in colorful fins made from another material, contributing as visual accents and easy grips.
