EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a pair of Silver Salt Cellars, designed by American artist Vincent Carano in the 1930s. The salt cellars, dating back to the 20th century and specifically the 1930s and 1940s, are a stunning example of functional art from the United States. Carano's intricate design is a harmonious blend of modernity and tradition, with the cellars boasting an engraved metal exterior and a graphite and colored pencil on paper interior. The Salt Cellars, part of the Index of American Design, are a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the United States during this period. The decorative arts movement of the 1930s and 1940s saw a renewed interest in ornamental design, and Carano's work perfectly encapsulates this trend. The Salt Cellars, with their elegant and functional design, would have graced many a table in American homes during this time. The use of silver adds a touch of sophistication and luxury, while the engraving lends a sense of craftsmanship and attention to detail. Today, these Salt Cellars are a cherished addition to the Decorative Arts and Design collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. They serve as a reminder of the importance of American design in the 20th century and continue to inspire artists and collectors alike.
