Step back into a 1970s kitchen, when even a simple shaker was allowed to make a statement. Arthur Wood covered this compact cylindrical form with loose pink-and-yellow peach decoration, bright green leaves and quick dark lines. There is nothing restrained about it, which is precisely what gives the piece its period character. 

It was made to be used and seen—a practical kitchen piece that could remain on the worktop rather than disappear into a cupboard. At just 10 cm high, it is small, but the exuberant decoration gives it far more presence than its size suggests. Today it makes a cheerful reminder of the colourful, informal kitchens of 1970s Britain.

Dimensions: Approximately 10 cm high.

Condition: Good vintage condition, with crazing to the glaze. The painted decoration remains bright and clear. Recommended for decorative use only.

Worldwide Shipping: The shaker will be carefully wrapped and securely packed in a strong double-walled box for safe delivery.

Collector’s Note: Arthur Wood & Son began manufacturing at the Bradwell Works in Longport around 1928, with a clear understanding that useful household pottery did not need to be dull. By the 1960s and 1970s, the company’s output increasingly centred on hollowware and decorative pieces for the home. This little shaker belongs to that later, more informal chapter in the factory’s history.
