Salt & Pepper Coconut Shell Shakers

A pair of salt and pepper shakers made from whole coconut shells that would otherwise be burnt as waste. Each holds 50–75 ml, which is a table-top refill rather than a bulk container.

Key Features

• Two dispensers made from upcycled coconut shell
• Naturally hard shell with the grain and colour left visible
• Table-size capacity of 50–75 ml each
• Packed in fully recycled packaging

Materials

• Coconut shell

Product Details

• Contents: 2 shakers
• Capacity: 50–75 ml each

Care Instructions

• Hand wash only, in lukewarm water with mild soap — never the dishwasher
• Dry thoroughly before refilling; damp salt will clump and damp shell can crack
• An occasional wipe of food-safe oil keeps the shell from drying out

Good to Know

Shell size, curve and colour vary from coconut to coconut, so the two shakers will not be an exact match. Coconut shells are usually burnt off in bulk in South India, so using them for goods keeps that carbon out of the air.

FAQs

Which one is salt and which is pepper?

They are a matched pair without markings — buyers usually keep track by which contents they fill first.

Will salt corrode the shell?

No, but salt draws moisture, so empty and dry the shaker if it is going unused for a long stretch.

Are they dishwasher safe?

No. Heat and long water contact will split coconut shell.
