Vintage Eva Zeisel Shmoo design Salt (Peach) & Pepper (Dusk Blue) Shakers for Red Wing Pottery, Town & Country. Condition: Very good vintage condition. The colors are very good.
Pepper - Height: 4.5", Width:3", Depth: 3.5. Description: colors are Peach and Dusk Blue. Town and Country dinnerware was created by designer Eva Zeisel and it represented her only work for Red Wing. This pattern is famous for it's tilted plates and bowls and for the rounded shapes that easily fit in the hand.
The Shmoo salt & pepper shakers are iconic in design. Town and Country was initially available in seven colors that could be mixed and matched, White, Dusk Blue, Sand, Metallic Brown, Chartreuse, Peach and Rust. By 1949 White, Peach and Sand had been discontinued and replaced by Forest Green and Gray. Also by 1949 the salad spoons and soup tureen with ladle were discontinued, thus they are quite rare today. Town and Country pieces were not marked and for years were not recognized by most people as Red Wing. But interest in Eva Zeisel and her work escalated rapidly in the 1990s, as did interest in and values for Town and Country dinnerware. Town and Country pattern was discontinued in 1956. Keep checking back, I will be listing more of my Eva Zeisel collection this week. T E R M S O F S A L E: Most items are found at estate sales and flea markets and are in many cases 50+ years old.
