Item Description
There are several reasons to covet this little treasure. First, it was made in Aberdeen, so by nature it is rare. Second, it is engraved with a splendid crest of a cockatrice and spear. Third, it is struck with WOW quality hallmarks, and fourth, it is one of those tiny household items that one simply cannot do without. If you serve salt in an open cellar, there is just no substitute. It has seen some use, and the bowl is not quite true, but consider this little object has managed to survive for almost 200 years!!
