A vintage pair of salt and pepper shakers crafted in the 1960s with a stunning mother of pearl (abalone) finish. These oval-shaped shakers feature a highly iridescent surface with natural tones of blue, green, and violet, reflecting the beauty of abalone shellwork from the mid-century era.

Era: 1960s, Mid-Century Modern
Design: Oval form with drilled shaker tops, shimmering iridescent finish
Dimensions: Approx. 2.75"–3" H each
Condition: Excellent vintage condition with minor age-appropriate wear; retains full luster.

Notes: A rare and collectible set — functional as salt and pepper shakers, but also a striking decorative accent for mid-century or coastal-inspired décor.
