Salt was a highly-prized commodity in the 1700's and salt piled on a tray was on display at the table for elegant guests. We call these master salts. In later years these have become collectibles in several countries. These are also other uses today, such as a guest soap dish or a dish for rings. Mottahedeh has produced these master salts in an array of colors: Pink, Apple, Cornflower, Green and Cobalt Blue.
