A salt cellar, also known as a salt pig or a salt box, is a decorative and functional storage container most often kept in the kitchen to add a pinch of salt while you cook. Busy home cooks have a lot on their plate, and using a salt cellar keeps salt fresh. Use one to add last-minute seasoning, and browse styles that match your kitchen decor from a shop on Etsy.

The most popular material choice for a salt cellar is wood or ceramic. Each material offers its own decor style; ceramics tend to lean toward lived-in, vintage, and Mediterranean styles while woods often complement rustic, farmhouse, and contemporary kitchens.


Wood salt cellars are often made from decorative wood such as olive or acacia to showcase the natural wood grains and unique patterning inherent in the material. Some wood cellars might include an engraved lid with a pattern or one that you personalize with a seller on Etsy. Personalized wood salt cellars are great gifts for the home cooks in your life or for adding your own signature touch to your kitchen decor.


Ceramic salt cellars have a vintage, lovingly made feel to them that complements home cooking. They’re often rounded or boxy, but they may also feature a playful design to help your kitchen feel a little more whimsical and lived-in. Imagine scooping your salt out of a cute little pig, or feeling a heavy stone spoon while you season your pasta.


You are not limited to these materials and decor styles, and can choose other materials to design your own salt cellar. Marble salt cellars, for example, take the weighty feel of ceramic but look earthy on a wooden countertop. Glass or silver are popular materials for antique salt cellars, with intricately cut glass or polished silver detailing.

Getting the right amount of salt is easy with a salt cellar spoon, and a lid helps protect the salt from oil and water splashing off the stovetop. Spoons are usually small—not larger than a tablespoon—and may either rest inside the salt cellar or nearby on the countertop. If you choose a salt cellar with a lid, there may be a small notch in the side to allow space for a spoon while still closing the lid tightly. Many sellers on Etsy offer salt cellars with spoons and lids so you can get the best of both worlds, or pick up an open-top salt cellar to season food with your fingers.
