The variety of novelty cruet sets available is amazing! Just look through some of the salt and pepper pot images and you’ll wonder at how imaginative people are to have come up with so many ideas.
The designs will probably make you smile and it would be very easy to get hooked into becoming a collector of these amusing and useful items as so many people are already.
Many of these condiment sets are made of ceramic/pottery but metal, including silver plate is used to make some of the more expensive items and also glass, plastic and wood.
One of the advantages of collecting novelty cruets sets is that they can cost as little or as much as you want to pay. In other words, their prices range from just a dollar or two, to solid silver models that would cost a lot more – so they are affordable for almost everyone.
If you collect them, you may decide to specialize with just animals for example. Modes of transport such as cars buses etc. is another popular category. Characters such as Batman and Robin, a golfer or a police officer are also available, in fact, if you can think of an idea for a salt and pepper shaker, it probably already exists!
We recently bought our niece a condiment set which comprised of a novelty salt and pepper shaker. She has her own place now and likes to entertain her friends. She loves dogs so we sent her a novelty salt and pepper cruet set in the form of two dogs, she loved them and so did her friends.
She said they were the talking point of everyone who came and admired them! Now it seems her friends want to buy some novelty salt and pepper shakers too. The two dog salt and pepper cruet set that we sent to our niece is made from ceramic and the company we bought them from sells lots of salt and pepper sets from novelty to retro, from standard to classique, from small to giant size.
They are made from different types of materials too, for example, glass, wood, plastic and ceramic. They even have some that light up – if you can think of it, a novelty cruet set has probably been made!
The amusing thing is that you can easily forget that they have a practical use – so get them out at meal times and have some fun too!
