<p>[QUOTE="lizjewel, post: 2488042, member: 13874"]Thanks again, [USER=2844]@Any Jewelry[/USER] ! <i>Sugar sifter</i> makes sense. It's really too long and heavy, and with the wrong cup shape too to be a tea strainer. It'd be difficult to rest a square shape bowl over a teacup I'd think.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sugar sifters are not much in use in modern times. I guess most sugars, what little we use these days, come already pre-sifted now. We use maple syrup and honey for sweetener in foods, baked goods. So the sugar sifter can now join the <i>buggy whip</i> in the<i> archaic items </i>department. Still a nice piece though. Maybe someone still sifts sugar, or something, and can find a use for it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
