Ever present near the stove in country kitchens, the cooks of yesteryear used this unique container to keep their salt within quick reach. Now today’s cooks have discovered its practical convenience, perfect for keeping coarse grained Kosher or Sea Salt in the open air where it’s less apt to form clumps. Our Mason Cash Salt pig features a large, open “snout” that simplifies grabbing a pinch or a spoonful and a small knob on top for easy moving. Made of the highest quality ceramic, it stands 6.5” High, 6” Wide and 4.5” Deep, with a 3”diameter opening. Dishwasher Safe.
