Pyramid pattern was designed by Harald Nielsen for Georg Jensen, the Danish silversmiths.
The salt, pepper & mustard pots are all round spheres of silver on tiered round bases.
The mustard pot is lidded, with a handle & a cobalt blue enamel interior.
The salt & paper pots have silver twist off plugs. The one in the salt pot is marked " GI 925S Sterling HN Denmark 632".
The plug in the paper pot is unmarked being a replacement that we had hand made to fit the pot.
The base of the mustard pot is stamped "Dessin HN Sterling Denmark 632" and has an oval cartouche stamped Georg Jensen with a crown on top and also the "GI925 S" stamped within the oval dotted edge cartouche, being the marks used by Jensen in 1925 - 1932.
All 3 pieces are hallmarked with the import mark, for silver, and bear the sponsor's mark "G.S" presumably mark of the retailer who originally imported the pieces into the UK for sale.
The date stamp on the mustard pot is for 1930 & those on the salt & paper pots are for 1931.
