Description from the seller

Whether it's a birthday or a Sunday brunch, this dinnerware immediately brings the atmosphere of 'back then' to the table.

Contents of the lot
This extensive lot consists of:
• Four classic milk jugs (beak-spout model) for perfect pouring.
• Four matching sugar bowls, ideal for presentation on a tray.
• One tall, stately sugar vase for a refined look.
• One large, lidded sugar pot, the centerpiece of the collection.

Condition and Finish
The items show an authentic patina that gives the set character. Most of these pieces were produced by the well-known silver factory Herbert Hooijkaas (HH) from Schoonhoven. A quick polish with a silver cloth restores the high shine of yesteryear, but the well-worn look certainly fits in a vintage interior.

Silver-plated white metal:
1. 4x milk jugs (beak-spout model): The classic plump jugs with the distinctive little handle.
2. 1x sugar cup/vase: A slim, tall model without a handle.
3. 1x large sugar pot with lid: The centerpiece of the set, complete with the original knob on the lid.
4. 4x sugar bowls/cream cups: The broader, shorter models without a handle for sugar cubes or loose cream.

Note: please indicate the weight and dimensions of the large sugar pot.
