3- and 5-holed tops for differentiating salt from pepper
Editorial Review:
Leave it to Le Creuset to spruce up even the most minute cooks tools, like these darling salt and pepper shakers. Measuring 1-oz. each and crafted from sturdy traditional stoneware, this salt and pepper set bring a pleasant rustic elegance to the dinnertable.About Le Creuset... Since 1925, artisans have been crafting Le Creuset cookware in the French village of Fresnoy Le Grand. Each piece of Le Creuset cast iron cookware is handcast, polished, double enamel-coated and then fired, resulting in some of the finest quality cookware available. Cast iron is one of the best materials for distributing heat gently and thoroughly and is ideal for induction ranges. The strong enamel coating will not absorb odors or flavors, and is easy to clean. Heavy lids securely seal in moisture and flavor. Le Creuset cookware comes in a variety of sizes, colors and styles to match any kitchen and cooking preference. So lasting, you'll pass it on to the next generation of promising cooks.
Add a touch of whimsy and charm to a table with this set of salt and pepper shakers. Shaped like tiny pitchers, the shakers even have curved handles and pointed spouts, which don't pour, of course. A different number of holes in the flat tops-three in one, five in the other-let you choose which one to fill with salt and which with pepper. The shakers even feature the signature raised concentric circles found on full-size Le Creuset pitchers, along with the company's name, and come in a choice of intense colors to match other Le Creuset pieces.
The three-ounce shakers, made of extremely high-fired stoneware that is coated with hard enamel, are virtually non-porous and resist chipping, cracking, scratching, and staining. While all Le Creuset stoneware is safe for the oven, microwave, freezer, and dishwasher, most likely these shakers will only need to go in the last appliance. --Ann Bieri

Cute and sturdy:
I love Le Creuset! These salt and pepper shakers are sturdy and the holes on top are just the right size.
Cute but not functional:
These are well made but a little too small to use for cooking so I am using them on the table with meals.
My husband finds the finger holes too small to use.
Too little for stove top.:
They are very cute, no doubt about that. Quality is also impecable. The handles are of a good size but the shakers are too little. I like them better on the table... then they are of a good size.
Too cute for words:
Hey, they're just salt & pepper shakers, and I usually like to use salt & pepper grinders at the table, but in the kitchen they're still useful and they look great. :)
