Vintage earthenware flour shaker by Price and Kensington in the shape of a smiling Chef. In overall good condition with only some light crazing to the glaze and a couple of small chips that are out of sight in normal use; one on the heel of his right foot and a smaller one between the heels, both visible in the inset. They were there when I acquired him but do look to be recent. There are also two very small marks, one to the left of his cravat knot and another on the rim of his hat above his right eye (as you look at him) where the glaze has either rubbed away or not taken. They aren't in places that would easily knock so I favour the latter. It has a small red stopper in the base that does not look to have been opened and I can't detect any flour residue inside so I would hazard a guess it's not often been used, if at all. Marked on the base "Made in England P & K" with a black "N". P & K is often mistakenly referred to as PEK as the "&" resembles a capital E.
