Description

LOT OF 6 DIFFERENT VINTAGE CHINA OPEN SALT CELLARS DIPS ALL PORCELAIN 1 / 8
This sale is for six (6) wonderful little porcelain or china open salt cellars or individual nut dishes.
Each is decorated in a different way and they are a mix of hand-painted and transfer decoration and all are quality little pieces of porcelain.
The pieces you see in my photos are the actual pieces you will receive.
Please note: There are faint “spots” showing in the photos, at least on my computer; these are from my camera and they are not on the salts.
Please be sure to read the “Age and Condition” paragraphs below.
I am gradually selling my salt cellar and individual nut dish collection that at one time was over 1,800 pieces.
Most of these particular pieces have been in my collection since the 1980’s.
As you can see from my photos, most of the salts are marked on the bottom.
Two have “Nippon” marks, one has a “Noritake” mark, one is marked “Bavaria” and two are unsigned.
Similarly shape salts are pictured in the book
5,000 Open Salts
by William Heacock & Patricia Johnson.
Six beautiful and desirable little pieces and all six for one price!
I do my best to describe all items as accurately as possible and to the best of my ability.
Some of my photos may be somewhat lighter or darker than actual to better show detail or color.
However, do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, comments, or with requests for additional pictures.
I will get back to you as soon as I am able.
I want your transaction with me to be exactly the way I want mine to be when I am the buyer.

Age and Condition
Circa 1910-1935.
Please look closely at the photos as they are an important part of my description of these items.
The only damage is to the largest one, there is a small chip to the rim (tiny white area on the rim in the photos).
There is also wear to the gold trim on some of them – see the photos.
Otherwise, there are no other chips, flea bites, cracks, hairlines or repairs to any of the six.
Please keep in mind the photos may be blown up at least 8-10 times normal, so anything you see will look 8-10 times larger in the photos than it really is.
Please note: if you see a dark spot in the photos, it is from my camera and is not a mark on the piece.
It will be either just to the right of center towards the bottom or slightly above center on the right side of the photo.
