The spices, including paprika, dried oregano, dried thyme, cayenne pepper, black pepper, white pepper, and garlic powder, are presented in small rustic ceramic bowls. Some of the spices are scattered around the bowls for a natural look. A wooden spoon and a folded linen napkin add to the cozy and inviting presentation. Soft natural light highlights the vibrant reds, greens, and earthy tones of the spices.
