Vintage 1960s Holt Howard Style - Cat Salt & Pepper Set

This vintage 1960s cat salt and pepper set captures the playful charm of mid-century dining. Designed in a Holt Howard–inspired style, these ceramic cats make a whimsical statement on a kitchen shelf, breakfast table, or display cabinet, while still performing the essential role of seasoning your meals. 

 

Although bought as Holt Howard and bearing a Portugal mark underneath, these shakers are believed to be copies, as marked 'Portugal'. The pairing features two ceramic cats facing each other, adding a touch of character to any retro-inspired or eclectic space. The pieces are in good condition for their age; the female cat has a few hairlines on the base, but because the salt and pepper pots sit in the heads, this doesn’t affect use.
