Description
Practical, Beautiful, and Full of Character
The Muchelney Pottery salt pig is one of those indispensable pieces — practical, tactile, and full of charm. Whether kept beside the stove for a pinch while cooking, or placed at the centre of the table for sharing, it offers a traditional and accessible way to store your salt in style.
Measuring approximately 11.5cm high by 10.5cm wide, this hand-thrown piece sits comfortably in the kitchen or on the table. Its opening allows for easy access with fingers or a small spoon, while the upright form helps protect the salt from splashes or spills.
Each salt pig is individually thrown and woodfired in our Somerset kiln. The flames naturally mark the surface so no two are ever exactly the same — each one shaped by fire, earth and hand. It’s both a functional tool and a characterful addition to any kitchen.
Dishwasher safe and glazed with lead-free materials, it’s as practical as it is beautiful. Whether bought for your own kitchen or gifted alongside a pouch of Cornish sea salt, this piece makes a thoughtful and lasting present — rooted in tradition and designed for daily use.
