A pair of 925 silver and faceted glass salt cellars designed in the form of swans.

The wings are decorated with pierced openwork and cast floral motifs, featuring a hinged mechanism that allows them to be positioned in an open or closed state over the central well. These items are characteristic of mid-20th-century continental European decorative silverware, often used as table appointments. The metal components are identified as 925 silver.
