Salt was important for preserving food as well as cooking it. In colonial homes, free-flowing grains [of salt] began with placing the salt box near the fire for drying out lumps or removing a brick to make a salt niche.
Wooden salt boxes could be covered with decorative carving, sometimes as an engagement gift, painted, veneered, or left plain.
The salt box was full of meaning, over and above its practical importance. It was a symbol of hospitality in Germany, and suggested a well-run and comfortable home in Britain and Ireland too. Like salt itself the box might not be noticeable, and yet it was essential for cooking.

from 16 reviewsIf you’re a fan of history with the gruesome bits left in, then this little kit is the one for you! The scale is great, the design is perfect and the instructions easy to follow, this kit has what you need to make a great nod to a rather scary time for women in your miniature work. On top of that, the delivery itself was super efficient and even personalised with a lovely little message.
