Part of the Vénus Collection — a Roman counterpart to the Aphrodite series — the Vénus Salt & Pepper Cellar draws on classical references with its delicate, shell-like form. The twin bowls are joined in a sculptural composition, offering a refined and practical way to serve salt and pepper.
The luminous white glaze reveals subtle glimpses of the natural brown clay beneath, a signature of Astier’s distinctive finish. Handmade in the Parisian workshops, each piece is stamped with the Astier de Villatte monogram and the initials of the artisan who crafted it.
Designed for the table yet equally suited as a decorative object, this piece brings a quiet sense of history and detail to everyday rituals.
Dimensions : 130 x 65 x 45 mm.
