Got my mom a salt cellar from Alton Brown, since I liked the design of his more than others I'd seen, and the price was comporable to them. She loved it, since it meant we could get the fugly box of kosher salt we finally got to see what it is put away.
I admit, it was also for myself, since it's such a pain to add a pinch of salt to something with a pour spout.
