1950s Vintage Clowns with Reamer Hats Salt and Pepper Shakers, Japan
Darling pair of vintage ceramic clown shakers, with polka dots and yellow pointed hats.
This is an adorable pair of seated clown salt and pepper shakers with sweet hand painted faces and bright attire. They wear whie and yellow ribbed 'reamer' hats that resemble a kitchen juice reamer. Their white clown suits sport orange, blue and green polka dots, and are finished with a ruffled white collar lined in orange. They hold the sides of their legs in a seated position for a compact size, standing just over 2.5 inches tall. Each has five shaker holes at the top of their head. They retain their original wood corks and are stamped Japan in black ink on the bottom. They are in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or repairs. One shaker appears a bit larger and it has a tiny factory blem on his hat that has been glazed over.
What a fun set of colorful vintage ceramic clown salt and pepper shakers to add to your collection! #SPfig 0203
