1940s Vintage White Pelicans Salt and Pepper Shakers, Japan
Fun older pair of ceramic nautical bird salt and pepper shakers, seated white pelicans with their giant beaks!
This is a great set of vintage Japan pelican seabird salt and pepper shakers with lots of detail to the sculpted bodies, including wings, feathers and beak details. The eyes and mouth line are hand painted over the glossy ivory-white glaze. White pelicans are more rare than the brown species. They both retain their original wood corks and are stamped Japan in black ink. The pair measures 2.5 inches tall and are in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or repairs.
These fun antique white pelican salt and pepper shakers would be a great addition to any nautical themed kitchen, or any vintage animal salt and pepper collection!
