Collecting Salt Cellars, Salters, and Sterling Silver Salt Spoons

Sterling Silver Salt Spoons are an elegant addition to any table and a popular collector’s item. Salt Spoons, popularized in 1810, were used when individual servings of salt (served in salt cellars) were needed during Victorian dinner parties. These miniature spoons, which usually measured no longer than two to three inches, were traditionally made from sterling silver and had highly ornate patterns.

Sterling Silver Salt Spoons are now a timeless and sought after addition to many collections. Salt spoons, both antique and reproduction, exemplify beauty and detail. Although traditionally cast in sterling silver they can also be found in glass and wood. Salt spoons typically have a small spoon bowl measuring no more than ½ to 3/4 inches and an ornate handle featuring flowers, swirl designs or geometric patterns. The range in patterns varies from very simple to extremely decorative.

Salt spoons are produced today – allowing you to find unique pieces to introduce to your fine tableware collection. It is a simple addition to your table that adds an elegant touch during any occasion. Be sure to follow a few simple steps when selecting your salt spoons. First, use sterling silver spoons for all your place settings. Second, make sure to replace salt and pepper shakers with salt cellars for each setting at your table. You can find salt cellars and dinnerware to tie the pattern of your salt spoons into table. By using sterling silver for all your salt spoons you can use different patterns and designs – you need not use the same spoon for every place setting.

Sterling Silver salt spoons are readily available online as well as in many catalogs. Search for sterling silver construction and be sure to ask questions. When you start to collect sterling silver salt spoons you can be sure that different shapes and combinations will work together nicely. These sterling silver salt spoons can be found online through LookInTheAttic & Company and they also offer free assistance and help.
