Pair of Federal Madrid Yellow Depression Glass Salt and Pepper Shakers

A charming pair of salt and pepper shakers produced by Federal Glass Company in its iconic Madrid pattern. Crafted in luminous yellow Depression Glass, these pieces showcase the elegant molded floral and scroll motifs that made the pattern one of the most recognizable American glass designs of the 1930s.

Retaining their original metal shaker tops, the pair embodies the combination of practicality and decorative appeal that characterized American tableware during the Depression era.

Designed to coordinate with other pieces from the Madrid line, these shakers are ideal for collectors seeking to complete a Federal Glass service or for anyone drawn to the charm of vintage American pressed glass. Their graceful proportions and cheerful color allow them to function equally well as table accessories, display pieces, or additions to a curated collection of domestic objects.

An appealing example of American Depression Glass, offering both historical character and timeless decorative presence. Perfect for collectors of Federal Glass, Patrician pattern tableware, and early twentieth-century American glass.
