Has anyone seen this salt and pepper pot anywhere? My daughter has fallen in love with it - seen in a pub in Devon. The owner said he collects them, can’t remember when or where he got this but won’t sell it. I’d soo love to find it for her. I’ve tried google lens but no joy.

Can ANYONE find this??

But I’d love to know more about the history of it - any idea where it came from?

@Flipper1234 did you look at my link up thread - there is a photo of it in it's packaging that shows the brand name

I did thank you but all in Russian. I did see the packaging “kochen mit genuss” which is German for “cooking with pleasure” and Agness which I assume is the brand… very grateful for everyone’s detective work!

It was out for use

Wow, that is trusting of the owner, and it looks like that trust is well placed!

Ah but was it out for use, or on display and out of reach?

I have that set - if you give me a couple of days (I'm away at the moment) I can send it to you.
I send a picture to you in a few days!

That was so sweet of you thank you - sadly (for me!) I’d hurriedly bought the one from US! But I’d love to know more about the history of it - any idea where it came from?

My daughter has fallen in love with it - seen in a pub in Devon. The owner said he collects them, can’t remember when or where he got this but won’t sell it

I'm actually really surprised thinking about it that some b*std hasn't nicked that.
It would last two minutes in a pub in London, Manchester or Birmingham or any big city.

@WipeYourFeet
That's hilarious

There's a lot more inexplicable salt and pepper shakers on ebay. Now I've looked at a few searching for the OP, I'm getting lots more recommendations and some of them are bizarre. I'm getting a big urge to start collecting myself... and breathe...

I thought these were cute:

Thanks everyone! I’ve gone for the eBay one in US - the seller kindly sent me some more pics so I could make sure it was definitely the same set 😍

OMG how cute is THAT?! 😆 Hope you discover where it's from ... I wouldn't mind one myself!

JMSA · 05/08/2024 10:18

I've looked on Vinted for you but no luck. I can normally find anything on there!

WipeYourFeet · 05/08/2024 10:18

Ha! Cross posted with others. Aren't we a helpful lot!

WipeYourFeet · 05/08/2024 10:17

I found it on etsy but it's sold out. The Ad says it's a vintage item so I doubt you'll find a shop selling them.

Now I've gone down a rabbit hole (mouse hole?) So many different but very sweet examples. Much nicer than your average AIBU 😂
