<p>[QUOTE="DanaB, post: 1349494, member: 10739"]I think maybe loose tea or cocoa. So the marks on the bottom are from the spoon dipping in. And the fact it's painted inside, I think it's older than the 1950s. I'd put it in the 1800s. They didn't know not to paint inside. It's a matt paint and doesn't distract from the colorful green on the outside. They never thought about scooping up the paint in what they were going to ingest.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just my two cent worth but I don't think it's had anything heated in it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Dana[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>

Just my two cent worth but I don't think it's had anything heated in it. Dana[/QUOTE]
