A charming pair of vintage blue and white ceramic salt and pepper shakers inspired by classic Delft designs. The set features two traditional Dutch forms: a windmill and barrel-form tankard, decorated with cobalt blue floral details.
Made in Taiwan for the Western export market, these petite shakers reflect the popularity of Delft-inspired blue and white ceramics during the 1970s and 1980s. Taiwan-made windmill shakers from this period are documented, while windmills and miniature drinking vessels also appear throughout vintage Delft-style tableware.
Both retain their bottom stoppers and are stamped TAIWAN on the bases. A fun addition to a blue and white collection, vintage kitchen, or salt and pepper shaker collection.
Details:
Era: Circa 1970s–1980s
Material: Glazed ceramic
Condition: Good vintage condition with light age-related wear
Dimensions: Each approx. 2.25 in H × 1.5 in L
