Common Usage "Rule" Historically, many fruit sets (and cruets) follow a simple trick: the piece with fewer holes is used for pepper, while the piece with more holes is used for salt.
The CIC~R.W. Salt & Pepper Shaker Set consists of collectible, often hand-painted ceramic condiment shakers featuring themes such as bamboo, foliage, florals, or fruits.
Produced by Certified International China (CIC) in the late 20th century, these vintage, novelty sets are primarily available through secondary marketplaces.
