Table cover yourself!

In addition to wine glasses, the table could be set with salt shakers, sugar sprinklers, vinegar jugs, butter cups and glass candlesticks. The serving dish was called Presenter plate in the sales catalogue. Salt pans on the table were not common in Norway until the 18th century. Presumably the food was so salty that no extra salt was needed. Small, round salt pans were made both at Nøstetangen and Hurdal and Gjøvik. Sugar was put on the table in sugar bowls or sugar sprinklers. Butter was served in round bowls with a lid, vinegar in small jugs with a curved spout and handle. Candlesticks were made in several editions.
