French Salt?
« on: June 07, 2012, 06:14:18 PM »
A little cutie I acquired today that stands 2" and which appears to have spoon rests?   Cannot find anything that looks the same on the net and wondered if anyone had any ideas as to age/origin

Definitely. I think I reported seeing a window with at least 200 different ones in France some time ago. Unfortunately, there is no single source for attributing the double salts, and each and every glass works made them.
