Description

The listing, 1930s Flour Sugar SIFTER has ended.

Made in 1930-31 this fully functional antique flour/sugar sifter is made by Bromwell's BEE Pat# 1753995, has a green wood ball round handle, stands shy of 6 inches tall at the highest spot, has a heavy handle. Inside rotating ring is turned by the handle and brushes against a screen which sifts the flour No breaks in the screen noted, minor surface rust on the screen. The sifter, made of probably tin is a super gift, an addition to a vintage kitchen, for cake decorating, for a collector and ready to ship! Without adding flour, I feel it's capacity is 2-3 cups. No paint on this one except the green wooden handle. In exceptional condition for age! Please view & enlarge all the pictures.

check out the patent date, that gives you a range of manufacturing times.
