Description: Antique German porcelain hanging master salt box in the iconic Blue Onion pattern. It features a flat back and a hole for mounting and painted wood lid. It was made in Germany by Gustav M. Thurnauer & Bro. ca. 1887-1910. The partnership was dissolved in 1907, but the name continued for a while later. It is signed on the bottom as shown with the G.M.T. & Bro., Germany stamp and the model number 3981. Measures 9" tall by 6"1/2" wide and protrudes from the wall 4-1/2" out. Excellent antique condition. Some wear to the paint on the lid...but it's over 100 years old! No cracks or chips. Please take a look at the photos as they describe the salt box best. Most of the items we sell are estate finds, and are presented to you in, as is, as found condition. They are described to the best of our knowledge. Some wear is to be expected, unless described as flawless or mint. We can't know everything about every item we offer, so please take a good look at the photos and ask questions if need be. Returns: Our listings contain vintage, antiques and pieces being sold as collectors items. This means they often have manufacturer's defects, or age related wear.
