How much salt will they hold?

About a well-rounded tablespoon of kosher-style salt. Would be more with table salt.

As a guess, I would say approximately 1/2 cup, which is more than enough for a moderately-sized formal/semi-formal gathering. For my niece's wedding present, I included a box of kosher salt. Not pretty in a gift, but much better than regular salt for these pretty little vehicles.

these are large so about a 1/4 of a cup--most holders are much smaller than these.

These salt cellars hold approximately 2 tablespoons comfortably w/o looking too full. Sorry for delay in responding. I love mine and they look beautiful no matter what the occasion!

It should hold that amount without issue - I put a two pound item in them and they were fine.

They are small. I've had my set for several months now and have not filled either one. But then We don't use them every day. But remember you are filling with whole peppercorns and rock salt. So when grinding you actually have a bit more than you think.

You can buy with out Salt... but the Salt content is 35% or 860 mg from a jar. From a cube it is 43% or 1034 mg.

They hold about 1/2 cup liquid but that isn't right up to the top. I will using them for creme brulee and that is where I would fill them for that recipe.

The salt is a shaker...they are brass colored type of heavy plastic. I have already given my set away.

This one can be poured straight into into the salt shaker. They also have coarse salt that probably does need to be ground: One 16-Ounce Real Salt Sea Salt Coarse - Grinder

This unit only measures 22.5" x 17" x 22.5" assembled. You would be lucky to fit one bag of salt in this storage box.

I don't have an exact measurement, but I can give you a good idea. I was able to fill the salt box (with about a half-inch space at the top) with roughly 3/4 of the contents of the Maldon's Sea Salt container that I also purchased through Amazon, which weighs 8.5 ounces (240 grams), So I guess that the salt box would comfortably hold about 6.5 ounces (180 grams).

They're good size for the size of the bowls... about 3.5" long or so. They look right size in the bowl. But we just use our fingers to use the salt out of them anyways.

iT'S ABOUT 4" TALL. The other respondent is probably right: holds 1/4-1/3 c. salt

It does hold a decent amount of salt although I don't use it as my regular salt/pepper shaker. It is my extra. I am very happy with it.

Hi Linda, They hold .03 ounces. They are very small and fragile. The box arrived with three broken bottles and I would have had to ship back the whole box, etc. I bought them to put truffle salt in and give as house warming gifts but they are way too small and look kind of cheap. I don't know what you're planning to use them for but beware. I but from Amazon all the time and this is one of the first product I really have not liked. Katie

The container holds about 2tbs in the top two tiers and 3-4tbs in the bottom. I keep chipoltle salt in the second garlic salt in the top and kosher salt in the bottom The flavors don't come through but I don't use reg garlic salt I use garlic flake salt.

Although I don't have the exact measurement, it holds a substantial amount of salt. Based on the other salt mills I've looked at, it is right up there with the larger mills. Hope this helps.

They each only holds about 3 tablespoons, but that amount lasts a surprisingly long time. I have to fill my pepper shaker every 4-6 weeks, but have only filled the salt shaker once in 4 months.

They are about 3" tall and about 3 1/2" in diameter. They were larger than I really wanted. I was more looking for salt dips and found new ones on ebay.
