Circa 1941-1959: The vintage Harlequin pottery shaker was designed by Frederick Rhead early in 1936, before the pottery line had been named or taken on an identity. The salt and pepper shaker is a staple in a potteries foundation, and it is no surprise that they would have been among the first pieces to take shape. This example in original rose glaze is in excellent condition, is a genuine pair, and includes the novelty donkey metal holder.
