Salt

I've never made a salt before. We use salt loose, so it's about time I made something attractive for the salt to live in.

So, sea monster salt in cherry, with a praying Jonah salt spoon in black walnut.







I'm not putting my fingers in there, but Jonah......it's his job apparently.

  1. We use Maldon salt and I thought the container was called a pig. My Mother-in-law was from Maldon and we still have family in the area.

    That looks like quite a job to carve out the mouth.

    1. I think pig is Scots for pot and describes a larger jar for salt in the kitchen. One you can get your hand in. This is fairly small for the table. I'm calling it a salt.
      The mouth did take a while, but the spoon gouge helped.
