 If this shaker set could talk it would rap: "Salt, Salt n' Pepa's here, and we're in effect!" from the 80s hit song "Push It." 

The magnetic feet on these guys allow them to hang sideways on the stainless steel stem or firmly on the bottom disk. Leave it to the designers at Alessi to make a playful shaker. 

It's worth it's salt.

And pepper.

Matte Stephens has it down to a fine art.

His whimsical, limited-edition prints are all replicated from original gouache paintings. Their playful nature and muted colors remind us a bit of something that would be hanging on the walls during a Wes Anderson movie like The Royal Tenenbaums.

Face the music. It's time to get started on your stage style.
