Six matching pairs of sterling silver salts and pepper shakers, artistically done in the form of the koi (carp or goldfish). The container for the salt is also silver, and the finely ground pepper loads into a threaded hole at the base and comes out of the holes in the mouth and eyes. Each fish measures about 3 1/2" long, and is marked "sterling". The 12 pieces weigh a total of about 11 ounces. The condition is very good with some light tarnish, and two fishes have a small dent in their foreheads. Two padded storage boxes are also included. The asking price includes shipping within the USA.
