CARTIER AT THE TABLE.
RARE FIND!!!!

What you have here is an utterly marvelous vintage 1990's boxed set of Cartier sterling silver salt & pepper shakers — a true example of functional luxury where haute maison craftsmanship meets everyday ritual.

Crafted by the legendary house of Cartier, this exquisite set of eight miniature shakers is beautifully housed in its original fitted red Cartier presentation box, elevating the entire ensemble into full collector territory.

Each shaker is formed in a tapered, faceted geometric silhouette, giving them a sculptural, architectural presence — bold yet timeless. The gently pierced domed lids allow for preciseseasoning while adding a refined decorative flourish.

What truly sets this set apart is the two-tone luxury pairing:
4 shakers in pure sterling silver.
4 shakers in rich silver-gilt (gold-washed lids).
This was an intentional and elegant design choice — allowing the user to instantly distinguish between salt and pepper in the most glamorous way possible.

This is fine silverware made to the same uncompromising standards as Cartier’s legendary jewelry.

The shakers present with a beautiful reflective polish, showing only minimal age-related patina consistent with a cherished vintage luxury object. The original Cartier box remains a vital and valuable part of the set — a huge bonus for both collectors and investors.
