These are very funky retro Salt & Pepper Shakers! Very Americana. Beehive shape, warm brown ceramic. I've tried to research them and apparently these are from the 1950s, though they look more 1970s to me.
On one side is the word "Kansas" two darling sunflowers and the words "The Sunflower". On the back is a wonderful buffalo. The handles have a rope design.
They are ceramic, good condition, no chips or cracks. The stoppers are intact and clean. However, the salt shaker has a huge patch on the top where the colour is faded, the glaze is good but rough (see pictures). It also has a rough spot on the bottom in the glaze as well. I'm not sure if this is a manufacturer's defect.
Measures approx. 2 1/2 x 2 1/2 inches.
