Record Type: concept
salt casters (casters (vessels), condiment vessels, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Casters intended primarily for sprinkling table salt, particularly in historical and formal usage. Salt casters are usually of baluster or cylindrical shape, often of silver or other precious material, and have a pierced domed cover which was sometimes screwed to the container. They were often part of a set of casters, set on a tray at table, although caster sets often included saltcellars rather than casters. For similar items used to sprinkle salt, but forming one of a set of only two with a pepper shaker, particularly when made of more modest materials and intended for daily use in a household or restaurant, use "saltshakers," although usage overlaps.

Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Strooibussen voor tafelzout, met name in historisch en formeel gebruik. Ze hebben meestal een baluster- of cilindervorm en zijn vaak van zilver of een ander kostbaar materiaal gemaakt. Ze hebben een gewelfd deksel met gaatjes, dat soms op de houder kan worden geschroefd. Ze behoren vaak tot een set strooiers die op een schaaltje op tafel staat, al hebben strooiersets vaak zoutvaatjes in plaats van strooiers. Gebruik 'zoutstrooiers' voor soortgelijke items om zout mee te strooien, maar dan behorend tot een set van twee met een pepervaatje, met name wanneer ze van meer alledaagse materialen zijn gemaakt en bedoeld zijn voor dagelijks gebruik in het huishouden of in een restaurant. Er is wel overlap in beide betekenissen.
