Not one but two!!
Ive never seen these before as theyre aparently quite rare!!
They are sugar sifters made from ceramic and hand painted I believe in the 1940s.. they are in v good condition and stand 4 1/2" high ..
its not often you find two of anything , these are usable and fun items & I love them.. I think they are English Bobbies but who would want these in their kitchen ???? A great novelty!!
Im unsure who made these or where theyre from so any help will be greatly recieved ;-)
