| INDEX | ALL SILVER |
| DESCRIPTION | Pair of antique English Georgian solid sterling silver cauldron salts with blue glass liners, gilded interiors,
embossed decoration and hoof feet. The gilded interiors safely give you the option of not using the liners. I would always use the liners for salt but
maybe not for less reactive contents such as chilli flakes. Note: the liners are custom made and only fit one salt. If you get it wrong one liner will be a challenge but not impossible to remove. However, you need to push with moderate force to get the wrong liner in so this should not be an issue. |
