The decoration here is crisply drawn and generously applied, the wreath centered on the front and the border carried around the whole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA salt cellar belonged to a table where salt was presented rather than dispensed, one set at each place or shared between two, with a small spoon in bone or vermeil. The object survives it very well, and is just as happy holding rings beside a sink, paper clips on a desk. 2.75” x 2” \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaker: Baccarat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Cobalt crystal with gilt decoration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDate: 19th century\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Excellent antique condition, with only the faintest wear to the gilding consistent with age and use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Swan Hill Home","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49143690395867,"sku":null,"price":350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/0466\/6843\/files\/E5DC07BF-0BB4-4CB7-A190-C27D871D0097.jpg?v=1786816874","url":"https:\/\/swanhillhome.com\/products\/baccarat-salt-cellar","provider":"Swan Hill Home","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
