This black glaze turns into a gorgeous blue when mixed with the soft green glaze that hides underneath this adorable salt cellar.

Salt cellars (salt pigs) are just the cutest little addition to your kitchen countertops! Toss some salt, pepper, or whatever your favorite seasoning is into it and you have a dish you can either pinch or scoop and sprinkle onto your food as you are cooking.

Each piece of pottery is crafted from stoneware clay and thrown on the potter’s wheel. After they dry a bit, I trim a foot on each piece and allow them to dry slowly. After that, they are bisque fired in an electric kiln. I then glaze each piece in a 3-step glazing process. Finally, the pots go back into the electric kiln and are glaze fired to cone 6. After a thorough sanding to ensure soft bottoms, they are ready for my happy customers!
