Mrs. C has taken a hard dive into the world of fused glass since retirement. She has been working with glass for decades - stained glass, mosaics, etc. Most of her creations have nothing to do with eGullet, although she has been making lovely plates for her siblings and in-laws. Eventually we might even get a set. 😉

 

Anyway, I was the beneficiary of this lovely salt box. I like the idea of having salt on the counter, ready whenever something on the stove needs a pinch.

Very beautiful.  Any plans to do a reach-in pig?


I had to look that up. No, I think a reach-in pig would require torch work. Different set of skills and equipment entirely. 
 

Plus a much higher risk of burning down our garage . . .

I think it's exotic that the shape of the salt cellar changes with the lid on or off. With the lid off, the cellar is mostly a square box shape, almost reaching the counter surface before there's any roundness. With the salt cellar top on, the whole salt box looks like a rounded mushroom. Very ingenious!
