This is an excellent little marble salt cellar. It's small but heavy and feels so well crafted. The marble is smooth and very well polished. The lid fits perfectly with just a small opening for the little spoon to fit inside, the spoon is included as well. It's very attractive and has a beautiful natural look and aesthetic. If taken care of, this is something that will last forever. I know it is called a salt cellar, but honestly, you could use this for any type of herb that can be left out at room temperature. I'm sure there are many other usages, but I will be using it for my pink Himalayan salt.
