Circa 1940-1959: 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 turquoise glaze is in excellent condition, is an actual pair, and comes with the novelty donkey metal holder and boasts a brilliant robins egg blue turquoise glaze.
