I have a general question regarding syrup pitchers, after doing some online research and not finding much. I did see that there were some American pewter examples dating back to the early 19c century and a glass and silver Dutch mid 19c example, but not much more. I'm wondering when silver syrup pitchers (or jugs) came into use, and what the definition of syrup would be. In America, I would expect them to be mostly used for maple syrup, but what about European ones? IP: Logged |

I had never come across the term syrup pitcher before your post - not a description we would use here in England. From a brief search the term seems to be used for quite a variety of small jugs. Many I would have described as milk or cream jugs and others I would simply have thought of as small general purpose jugs. You are right that over here it would not have been common practice to have jugs of maple syrup, or of any other syrup in my experience. IP: Logged |

Thanks for the reply Agphile. Maybe the English ones I've seen were made for export. IP: Logged |

It is also possible that English versions are for treacle. IP: Logged |
