Description

The listing, Double Salt Dips has ended.

Well folks this is a trial! I have many salt dips available but I was not sure if anyone here on listia would want them so I am posting two different ones right now and if the auctions go great I will post the rest.

The salt dips in my collection were my mothers. She passed away a few years ago and I need a crib more than I need antiques in my home.

The double salt dip is very unique and it is the only double I have. It is in excellent condition no cracks, chips or other flaws.

Dips are 4 1/2 inches long by 3 inches wide. I want to apologize upon closer inspection I noticed a total of three small chips each less than .25 mm big near the center of the dips on the smooth glass. They were so small I didn't notice them before.

They are very tiny bowls or shapes similar to bowls that held salt at one time. They are referred to as salts, salt cellars, salt bowls, salt dips. They are usually less than 2-3 inches across and were used with miniature spoons. This was how salt was served prior to the invention of the shaker. They were made in numerous shapes and varieties. Hope this helps.

Spoons are more rare, I do have a few somewhere I need to find but they will be listed separately.
