ROYAL SELANGOR BRITISH MUSEUM - LEWIS BERSERKER SALT SHAKER
An unhinged expression and the biting of shield identifies this enigmatic figure as a berserker, fierce warriors of Norse saga. More comic now than fearsome to contemporary eyes, our pewter warrior indulges in nothing wilder than dispensing salt.

Of the seventy-eight pieces known today, the British Museums collection of sixty-seven are one of its most popular attractions.
About the collection: A project with the British Museum, this collaboration draws on the public institutions vast collection of over 8 million artefacts, documenting the story of human culture from it;'s earliest days to the present. Each piece is marked with the British Museum logotype.
Size: H 6.5cm x W 3cm x L 2.5cm
