Vintage Lefton #7782 Female Egg Ceramic Shaker 3" Taiwan – Single
Give your vintage kitchen collection a cheerful touch with this Lefton female egg ceramic shaker, identified as pattern #7782. Its whimsical Humpty Dumpty-style design turns a simple egg shape into a smiling character with large painted eyes, delicate eyelashes, pink cheeks, and a small red mouth.
An orange flower with green leaves decorates the top of her head, while green-and-yellow clothing details and a reddish-brown bow complete the colorful design. Three dispensing holes are positioned on top, behind the floral decoration.
Standing approximately 3 inches tall, this petite ceramic shaker makes an appealing addition to a collection of Lefton ceramics, anthropomorphic kitchenware, novelty shakers, or egg-themed décor. The underside retains a red Lefton Taiwan foil label.
Originally part of a male-and-female salt-and-pepper pair, this piece may also interest collectors seeking a replacement companion for their existing shaker.
This listing includes the female egg shaker only. The matching male shaker is not included.
