你必须看到这个古怪的盐和胡椒瓶的集合
在西方世界的任何一家餐馆就座,你可能会在桌子上找到一对盐和胡椒瓶。这些多产的进餐时间助手对我们来说今天看起来有些平凡,但如果你看看他们的历史,你会发现他们只是平淡无奇!

第一台螺旋式盐瓶由John Landis Mason于1858年发明。有趣的事实:他也恰好是发明梅森罐子的人。虽然梅森的罐子立即获得了成功,但是他的盐瓶并没有像盐一样快速地流行起来,因为盐倾向于聚集在一起,使得无法摆脱穿孔帽。事实上,由于芝加哥莫顿盐业公司的独创性,梅森的发明需要再过半个世纪才能流行起来。在20世纪20年代,该公司开始在其盐中加入碳酸镁(一种抗结块剂),使其能够抵抗结块并完美地洒在摇床的顶部。.
虽然早期的盐和胡椒瓶更具传统风格,但大萧条导致了大量廉价,开朗,异想天开和色彩缤纷的摇晃。然而,真正引发盐和胡椒瓶收集的事件是汽车越来越普遍.
随着旅行越来越受欢迎,纪念品行业也越来越受欢迎 – 盐和胡椒瓶也成为送回家和朋友家人的理想礼物。突然间,有些人发现他们拥有的盐和胡椒瓶比他们可能使用的更多(或者可能它们太可爱了),盐和胡椒瓶收集器诞生了.
今天,复古盐和胡椒瓶是一种乐趣,收集的原因与人们第一次开始收集它们时的原因相同 – 它们有各种各样的款式,颜色和材料,而且价格相当实惠.
复古爱好者会欣赏这样一个事实:摇晃者有一种诀窍来表现他们制作时流行的东西 – 从配色方案到主题,甚至是制作它们的材料。.
你是复古翡翠的粉丝吗?为此设置了振动器。喜欢20世纪60年代的花卉美学?为此设置了一个迷幻摇床。并且还有一个振动器,几乎每个人都感兴趣!
像许多类型的老式家居用品一样,识别老式摇床的最简单方法是将其倒置(如果有溢出的话,一定要在你的肩膀上扔一小撮盐!)并寻找背面印章或制造商的标记。如果你在底部的某个地方看到“美国制造”或“日本”,你几乎肯定会看到一件复古的作品,因为美国和日本是鼎盛时期摇滚乐的主要制造者。如果你很幸运,你甚至可能会发现一个标记为“被占领的日本”的稀有装置 – 这意味着这些振动器是在二战后的日本生产的。.
具有多个部件或移动件的套件也非常受欢迎,因为它们更可能破坏或与套件中的其他部件分离.
在寻找复古盐和胡椒瓶组时要记住的主要事情就是享受乐趣。收集激发和激励你的套装,不久之后,你也将成为一个经验丰富的收藏家!

If you sit down at any restaurant in the Western world, you may find a pair of salt and pepper shakers on the table. These prolific dining time helpers may seem ordinary to us today, but if you look at their history, youll find that theyre anything but plain!
In the history of salt and pepper shakers, fruits and vegetables were a popular theme because they were cheerful, colorful, and suitable for any kitchen theme. The first spiral salt shaker was invented by John Landis Mason in 1858. Interesting fact: he also happened to be the inventor of the Mason jar. Although Masons jars immediately became successful, his salt shaker did not catch on as quickly as salt tended to clump together, making it impossible to get through the perforated cap. In fact, Masons invention didnt become popular until half a century later, thanks to the ingenuity of the Chicago Morton Salt Company. In the 1920s, the company began adding magnesium carbonate (an anti-caking agent) to its salt, making it resistant to clumping and perfect for sprinkling on top of shakers.
Excitement around the new plastic form in the 1940s and 1950s led to many interesting plastic shakers. The red and white shakers shown here match a range of popular kitchen canisters, while cats and dogs are advertising for the Ken-L-Ration pet food brand. Although early salt and pepper shakers were more traditional in style, the Great Depression led to a lot of cheap, cheerful, whimsical, and colorful shakers. However, the real event that sparked salt and pepper shaker collecting was the increasing popularity of cars.
These nautical shakers are a perfect example of the type commonly found in seaside souvenir shops in the 1950s or 1960s. The chimney on the St. Lawrence Seaway barge can be removed from the ship-shaped caddy and contains salt and pepper.
As travel became more popular, so did the souvenir industry – and salt and pepper shakers became the perfect gift to bring back home to friends and family. Suddenly, some people found they had more salt and pepper shakers than they could possibly use (or maybe they were just too cute), and salt and pepper shaker collectors were born
