This Open Salt Cellar, Pepper Pot & Mustard Pot are each hand made from solid silver and they have a combined silver weight of 138.9 grams, the salt cellar, mustard and pepper pots each stands on three shaped legs and the mustard pot has a shaped handle with a hinged lid, the mustard and pepper pots have decorative finials and the outer bodies have been raised relief and engrave decorated by hand, the pepper pot has a threaded stopper within the underside of its body and this antique cruet set has Not been personalized or engraved, each piece has been impressed with an unknown Indian silversmith or makers mark, the set has been tested and it each piece is guaranteed as being made from solid silver and I estimate that this set was made circa 1890 - 1900. Boxed Antique Sterling Silver & Blue Glass Lined Open Mustard Salt & Pepper Pot Cruet Set dated 1937. The mustard pot measures approximately 2 3/8 inches or 61 mm across from the handle to the front of its body by just over 1 3/4 inches or 46 mm across the width or diameter of its body from side to side and it stands 2 3/8 inches or 61 mm tall to the top of the finial on its lid when closed. The open salt cellar measures approximately 1 7/8 inches or 48 mm across the width or diameter of its body from side to side and it stands 1 3/8 inches or 36 mm tall to the top of its rim.

The pepper pot measures approximately 1 3/4 inches or 46 mm across the width or diameter of its body and it stands 2 3/8 inches or 61 mm tall to the top of its finial. This Open Salt Cellar, Pepper Pot & Mustard Pot are each hand made from solid silver and they have a combined silver weight of 138.9 grams, the salt cellar is in a circular cauldron like shape whilst the mustard and pepper pots are in circular spherical shapes that each stands on three shaped legs that have raised relief hand engrave decorated tops, the mustard pot has a shaped handle on the side of its body with a hinged lid and the mustard and pepper pots have decorative finials, the outer bodies have been wonderfully raised relief and engrave decorated by hand with stylized Indian scrolls, flowers and foliage within decorative borders and the pepper pot has a threaded stopper within the underside of its body that opens so that the pepper pot can be filled, this antique cruet set has Not been personalized or engraved with a previous owners inscription and each piece has been impressed with an unknown Indian silversmith or makers mark all as photographed below, the set has been tested and it each piece is guaranteed as being made from solid silver and I estimate that this set was made circa 1890 - 1900. The condition is used and Fairly Good for its age.

This Antique Indian Hand Made Solid Silver Scroll, Floral & Foliate Decorated Dining Table Cruet Set has No Splits, No Cracks, No Holes and No Repairs that I can find, all three pieces stand, both the mustard and pepper pot lids open and close as they should, the antique Indian solid silver makers marks are slightly worn in places but still legible although as this antique cruet set is used the salt and pepper pots have some dents in their bodies and the set has the obvious signs that it was hand made along with some minor surface marks and wear from use, the set has the patina of age that is to be expected and a gentle clean would not go amiss. Personally I think that this antique Indian cruet set can still be used on a dining table today and that it would make a superb addition to any collection, I also think that it has a delightful look about it considering that it's around 120 or so years old.
