Two piece stacker Salt & Pepper shaker in the shape of an English Oast house/Kiln House. I’m surrounded by Oast houses at my studio in the Kent countryside in England & the Oast house as a design was perfect to adapt as a two piece salt & pepper shaker set with the natural divide at the base of the conical roof! Originally these buildings were used to dry the hops that were picked by summer workers in the Kent fields, which ultimately went towards the manufacturing of beer. Nowadays these buildings are bought & fitted out as quirky dwellings! I carved the original model in plaster to achieve the precision & then made plaster piece moulds ready for the slip casting process( liquid clay) size approx 6inches tall to the very tip of the white cowel & 2.5 inches in diameter.
