Know before you buy
Yes, the heavy-gauge steel underbody provides a solid, weighted feel that prevents them from tipping over easily during use.
Each shaker features a practical silicone plug on the bottom. Simply pull the plug out to fill the container and press it firmly back into place to secure the contents.
While the shakers are technically dishwasher safe, we recommend hand-washing them to preserve the integrity of the hand-painted finish over time.
The shakers are identical in design, so you may want to establish a consistent placement on your table or check the dispensing holes, as some users prefer to use the shaker with slightly larger holes for pepper.
The pieces are hand-glazed for durability, but because they are hand-painted, they should be handled with care to avoid scratching or chipping the decorative surface.
