Lead crystal salt and pepper shakers may not be considered safe for everyday use, as lead can leach into food over time, especially with acidic substances like salt and pepper. Lead exposure can lead to serious health issues, particularly in children and pregnant women. It is recommended to use lead-free alternatives for food storage and serving to avoid potential health risks associated with lead crystal products.
