Lemon and Sugar Show and Tell


                    Welcome to all who read my Thursday Show and Tell.

 
There is not much I can tell you about the lemon juicer, I've had around my kitchen for years. Maybe you recognize the pattern and can share this with me.


I also have the matching sugar bowl. There is a small chip on the edge of the bowl that I did not remember seeing, until I edited the photos. Chip or no chip, it doesn't diminish it's value to me.







The only markings, on the bottom, are a set of numbers.


After all these years, the colors are still very vibrant. Don't you just love the accent of golden yellow?

PS...It wasn't until I wrote the last line of this post, that I made the connection of the two containers. What we have here are the tools and ingredients to make "Lemonade".

  2. Hi Susan...since writing the post, I have found out they were probably made in Japan with the Pennsylvania Dutch design.

  3. A lemonade set, what a charming idea! Really something worth showing and telling about!

  4. Hello Ms Sparrow...that's exactly what my "after-thought" was. Now days, so often we just open up a can and dip out a lemon powder, add water, and call it lemonade.

  5. They look dutch? I don't think so, but Pennsylvania dutch I'm not familiar with. They look nice, lovely design. And a lemonade set is not common here in Holland. Groetjes, Gerda

    1. Hi Gerda....Thanks so much for your comment. Pennsylvania Dutch(Deutsch)refers to German immigrants that settled in the state of Pennsylvania. I hope that clarifies it for you. I didn't know this until I did the post and some research. I have actually painted in this style many years ago.

  6. Perfectly beautiful set Meggie, although I know very little about markings on chinaware.

  8. Very pretty and so neat that you put together the lemonade connection! The chip just adds character and charm. My grandmother had a juicer made from clear glass.
