Here is a Gorham sugar shaker I recently acquired. I have also heard them called sugar sifters or muffineers. Anyone know the correct term? Anyway it is 6 3/4" tall and has the trident mark for 1897. There is a delicate band of flowers and garland around the top (I think it is engraved but could be wrong about that). In addition to the Lion,Anchor,G and trident mark, there is a number scratched into the bottom (sc40181). Anyone know what that is for?
PS I hope the pictures work as I am using the new photo hosting. If I did something wrong, please let me know. IP: Logged |

Nice muffineer! The scratched number is probably an owner's inventory number for insurance or some such. IP: Logged |

Odd...I replied to this yesterday, but don't see my message. It was short: I think these pieces are also called sugar castors or casters. IP: Logged |
