A Pair of Friendly Walrus Ivory Polar Bear Salt & Pepper Shakers

These are two rather friendly standing polar bears with their red mouths open but not threatening, waiting to be of service to you. Their paws are up and curved as if begging you to let them help you. They are standing on a thin base which screws into their feet to keep the salt and pepper from escaping. They have traces of the government stamping on their bases which established that they were made by Alaskan Eskimos. Nothing dangerous about this pair.
