Versatile, functional, and beautifully crafted, the Ankole Horn Mini Salt Cellar with Spoon is a wonderful addition to your everyday kitchen and a stylish, elegant accent for tabletop settings when entertaining. It's ideal for holding spices, herbs, or seasoning blends, or for offering individual portions of condiments, sauces, or garnishes at each place setting.

Hand-carved from the horns of the Ankole-Watusi, also known as the Ankole Longhorn, a cattle breed native to Uganda's western region and parts of East Africa, this piece turns a byproduct of the food industry into a lasting kitchen object. No animals are harmed for this product.

The horns are purchased directly from local cattle keepers, providing income for their communities, then hand-carved by a small-scale artisan community in Uganda.

Horn colour varies naturally, from beige to brown to black, so no two pieces are exactly alike. The colour shown for each variant represents its most dominant tone.

Why You'll Love It

  • Genuinely versatile. For spices and seasoning at the counter, or condiments and garnishes at the table.
  • Sustainably sourced. Made from horn that would otherwise go to waste, with no animals harmed for this product.
  • Supports cattle-keeping communities. Horns are purchased directly from the keepers who raise the Ankole-Watusi.
  • Hand-carved in Uganda. By a small-scale artisan community.
  • Naturally one-of-a-kind. Colour and grain vary within each tone, so every piece is slightly different.
