Item Details

A nineteenth century, French copper sugar spinner. This would have been used for doing fancy sugar work. Caramelised sugar would be trickled, from the pointy spout, to form sugar baskets, nests or other decorative forms. This example is made from a heavy gauge of copper and it dates from c.1860. It has seen plenty of use and, as a result, the copper is quite pitted. The wooden handle is probably a later replacement.
Dimensions: Length 27.5cm. Width of spinner 14.8cm. Depth 7cm.
Price includes postage within the U.K. Shipping to the U.S.A. add £30. Most of Western Europe add £15.
