Marble Salt Cellars with Lids, 3.2 in, Set of 2
Two lidded salt cellars cut from marble, 3.2 in square, one black and one white.
A cellar is a different thing from a shaker and does a job a shaker cannot. Salt taken by pinch rather than shake can be judged by the hand, which is how anyone who cooks seriously seasons — and it is the only way to use a flaked or coarse salt that would jam a shaker.
Marble is the traditional material and the reason is physical: stone stays cool and does not absorb moisture, so salt in a marble cellar stays loose where the same salt in wood or unglazed clay cakes.
The lids matter on a counter rather than a table — an open cellar collects dust and, in a kitchen, airborne grease. Black and white as a pair lets you keep salt in one and pepper or a spice blend in the other without guessing.
