Description

View Vintage Japan Salt and Pepper Shaker Lot Mid Century Novelty Figures with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. This vintage ceramic salt and pepper shaker lot features a diverse collection of mid century novelty figures produced in Japan during the postwar era. The group includes a wide range of figural designs, each crafted in glazed ceramic and hand painted with expressive character detailing typical of 1940s through 1960s Japanese exports. The assortment includes multiple human character shakers such as a seated boy in cap and trousers, a praying girl figure, a smiling elder character with head covering, a woman in traditional dress, and several stylized child figures in pastel glazes. Occupational and themed figures are also present, including a graduate in cap and gown and a uniformed figure with cap. These pieces reflect the popularity of character-driven tabletop décor during the mid century period. Also included are novelty object and animal designs such as a blue ceramic fish shaker, a bright yellow corn-on-the-cob figure, a light blue rotary telephone shaker with molded dial detail, and a whimsical clown-style character with green hat and expressive facial features. Several additional small figural shakers appear in coordinating pastel and earth-tone glazes, contributing visual variety and strong display appeal when grouped together. Together, the collection represents a classic cross-section of Japanese novelty ceramic production, a category known for its short production runs, hand-painted finishes, and imaginative designs. Many similar pieces were originally sold in dime stores and gift shops and were frequently separated over time, making intact mixed lots increasingly difficult to assemble today. This grouping offers strong collector value as a display set, resale assortment, or foundation lot for expanding a vintage salt and pepper shaker collection. Condition: Used.
