Up for bid is an early Nuremberg Germany open salt cellar with slipper feet.  The salt is 1 3/4 inches tall by 2 5/8 inches long by 2 inches wide and weighs 48 grams.  It has a bellied form with a flared rim and stands on four slipper feet.  It has a simple band of decoration.  It has not been monogrammed.  It is marked [GA /S] with a date letter, an [N] in an oval and an assayer’s gouge mark.

Condition on the salt is fairly good.  There are some stubborn spots and minor dents, but nothing too bad.  A fine old piece of German silver!
