Tupperware Salt and Pepper Shaker Set with Stand

This item is a vintage Tupperware salt and pepper shaker set, presented on a freestanding caddy or stand. The set comprises two individual shakers and a central stand designed to hold them. Each shaker is made of plastic, typical of mid-20th-century Tupperware products. One shaker appears to be a translucent pale yellow or cream color, while the other is a translucent pale green. Both shakers feature a white or off-white plastic lid with multiple holes for dispensing, characteristic of salt and pepper shakers. The lids have a stepped or ridged design, indicating they likely snap securely onto the shaker bodies. The shakers themselves have a slightly conical or cylindrical shape, wider at the top and tapering slightly towards the base. The stand is also made of white or off-white plastic, featuring a distinctive three-legged, Y-shaped base that provides stability. The central stem of the stand extends upwards, terminating in a ribbed or textured handle, and has two arms extending horizontally to cradle each shaker. The overall design suggests a functional and space-saving kitchen or dining accessory from an earlier era. The plastic material indicates durability and ease of cleaning. No major visible damage or chips are apparent, though some minor scuffs or discoloration consistent with age and use might be present, particularly on the lighter colored plastics. The style is distinctly mid-century modern, aligning with Tupperware's popular designs from the 1950s-1970s. The translucent colors and functional design are hallmarks of the brand's aesthetic. The craftsmanship is typical of molded plastic products, focusing on utility and mass production rather than intricate detail.
