Minimalist Monochromatic Seasoners

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This S-Shaped Salt and Pepper Set Needs Not be Shaken

— March 7, 2013 — Art & Design
This salt and pepper set by Guo Wei Chen is as modern as seasoners come. It allows the user to accurately slide the desired amount of seasoning out rather than having to aggressively shake it. The seasoning is stored within the centre of each piece and is easily administered through a simple tilting motion. This set is said to be intuitive in order to ensure when it's time to say, "when," you will accurately stop the flow of seasoning.

The style of this salt and pepper set is very modern looking with a smooth s-shaped design and simple monochromatic colors. It would certainly look sharp on the kitchen table and would suit just about any look.
