Measurements:

2" H x 2 5/8" W x 2 5/8" L
~4.2 oz

Condition:

Very good antique condition. No noticed chips, cracks or damage. Has some normal wear for age. Paint is aged and not as bright as it once was. There is a sort of lighter colored ridge along the center of the shaker that can be felt and appears to have been part of the way it was produced as it's under the paint. The shaker top has an antiqued color and appears to be in good condition. Please see all photos. less
