Pinch

PINCH is aslipcast porcelain salt and pepper set which brings the experience ofadding 'a pinch of salt' to the dining table. The bottom vessel isfilled with salt and acts as a tabletop salt cellar, and the top sphereis a traditional pepper shaker, filled through a corked opening in thebottom. The curved opening in the cellar accepts the shaker, which actsas a cover when not in use. The act of 'closing' PINCH results in thesatisfying slide of two pieces of ceramic against each other--aviscerally pleasing interaction that is reminiscent of using a ceramicmortar and pestle.
