They look similar but I'm not sure if they are Chippendale... do they really have ribs as it seems? I have a Chippendale one and it doesn't have the ribs... I'll try and get a piccie on here for you to compare with later today.

About 3 inches high, six sided, no ribs ,included better picture,Keith.

Keith - Try page 112 of Miller's C20 Glass by Andy McConnell, headed "American Chippendale" - originally in the 1917 catalogue of the Jefferson Glass Company. Subsequently, produced in the U.K. by Davidson from about 1930. Yours look as tho they have chrome caps.....is it permitted to quote the book exactly mod.? quote "(Chrome-capped salt and pepper(T750). The 1917 catalogue illustrated versions with differently shaped aluminium caps. These examples (in the book) are probably British c. 1930 - 40. 9 cms. (3.1/2")...) unquote. Paul S.

The ones in the Davidson's catalogue (1930s) as the 750 pattern are stated to have a coloured Bakelite screw cover - I don't know how many colours but I've seen them in an ivory/cream shade.
The Central Glass Works catalogue of c1919 gives the T750 as salt with an aluminium ring and glass top, the T751 as a heavy cast nickel ring with glass top, the T752 as having a cast nickel top, and the T753 as having a silver plated top.
No sizes are given for either, but mine has the nickel and glass type top and stands 105mm ( 4⅛" )

Your salt pot is a little more elegant,mine being shorter and squat but the same 'family' no doubt,ta,Keith.
