Gleaming with a mirror finish, each shaker is crafted of solid copper that has been subtly hammered for texture. Solid brass accents, also polished, include the base, a plaque with either 'S' or 'P' on it, and a squared, riveted handle.

Each shaker measures 4-1/4 inches tall and 2-3/4 inches in diameter, excluding the handle. --Ann Bieri
