Edwardian Hobnail Pattern Green Glass Sugar Shaker or Sugar Sifter

What's for sale?

This is an antique, Edwardian, glass sugar shaker with threaded brass top.

The colour is a really nice, vibrant green, and it was almost certainly made by pressing the glass into a mould. The proportions and balance are just right and the hobnail pattern gives the base a more substantial appearance.

The threaded brass top is a good, tight fit.

• The top is a secure and tight fit
• The metal top has four small dents around the side and about six tiny dents around the centre hole
• The inside of the top is tarnished

What are the measurements?

• 13.5cm high (just over 5.25 inches)
• 6.5cm in diameter at the base (just over 2.5 inches)
• 146 grams
