Mrs. Claus and Santa Claus Ceramic Salt and Pepper Shakers Set

This is a charming set of ceramic salt and pepper shakers, depicting Mrs. Claus and Santa Claus. Both figures are crafted from glazed ceramic, predominantly in white, red, and green colors, consistent with traditional Christmas themes. Mrs. Claus is shown wearing a white cap adorned with green holly leaves and red berries, and spectacles perched on her nose. She is dressed in a white gown with a red trim at the bottom, and appears to be playing a green accordion-like instrument. Santa Claus is depicted in his iconic red suit with white trim, a red hat with a white pom-pom, and a long white beard. He is also holding a green accordion. The figures appear to be hand-painted, with some minor inconsistencies in the application of paint, which is typical for mass-produced ceramic items of this nature. The glaze provides a glossy finish to the shakers. While specific dimensions are not provided, they appear to be of a standard size for salt and pepper shakers, likely ranging from 3 to 5 inches in height each. No visible cracks, chips, or significant damage are apparent from the provided images, suggesting they are in good vintage condition. The undersides, where shaker stoppers would typically be located, are not visible. The style suggests a mid-20th century to late-20th century production, often associated with holiday decor sets. The craftsmanship is fairly good for novelty kitchenware, with clear, recognizable depictions of the characters and bright, appealing colors. No specific manufacturer marks or signatures are visible, which is common for such items.
