Two Sterling Silver Salt Cellars with Lenox Inserts and Spoons
Newburyport Silver Co mini Spoons - sterling from early 1900s; Mass/New Hampshire; founded in 1902 by seven investors in MA (1904-1915)
Lenox porcelain inserts
R Wallace & Sons Salt Cellar Bases - Wallingford CT (Founded by Robert Wallace in 1835; incorporated in 1879; RW&S mark used from 1870s onward before eventually becoming Wallace Silversmiths). The firm used this stag logo with RW&S on sterling and other lines in the late-19th/early-20th century; Wallace later became Wallace Silversmiths. Incuse “STERLING” with the RW&S stag typically points to c. 1890–1915 (Victorian into Edwardian). Many Wallace open salts from this era are small round or lobed dishes—often footed—and sometimes paired with cobalt-glass liners and tiny sterling spoons.
R. Wallace & Sons did sometimes pair their sterling salt cellars with Lenox porcelain liners in the early 1900s. Around 1906–1920, Wallace collaborated with Lenox (then called Lenox’s Ceramic Art Company) for custom porcelain liners in sterling holders — not just salt cellars, but also nut dishes, creamers, and other tableware.
Lenox liners from that era are usually ivory-toned porcelain with a gold rim and a green or gold backstamp (often the early green wreath & L mark; introduced in 1906 and didn't include made in us until 1930).
Wallace + Lenox combinations are sought-after because they combine two premium American makers. Complete sets with original liners in good condition typically command higher prices than those missing them.
This exact pattern 2183-3 has been documented as antique/vintage in descriptions. Open cage salt cellar style was popular for Edwardian era (1900-1915)
This set roughly dates between 1906-1915 period; early 20th C
