Before fire extinguishers and sprinklers and flame-proof blankets, flammable areas like restaurants or kitchens were always protected by fire buckets; red metal pales filled with fire-dousing sand and marked ‘FIRE’ in re-assuring capital letters.

It’s this convenience and simplicity that we’ve harnessed and developed into Pinchpots - a pair of charming mini-buckets marked ‘SALT’ and ‘PEPPER’, designed to sit on your kitchen worktop or dining table and provide immediate sprinklings of seasoning whenever you need to add a little flavour to your food.
