Can anyone identify this>>>>>

Hi,

I have a silver plated (sugar shaker, pepper pot etc) which i have identified as marked epns thomas white star triangle 1872-1891.

It is unusual because it has a handle so i am not really sure what it can be? it stands aroun 5 inches high, and has a push on domed top with holes rather like a sugar shaker.

any comments most gratefully received. xx

Still sounds lke a sugar shaker to me, as there are ones with handles to the side


Not sure if you know but the EPNS is electroplated nickle silver, if my memory serves me right

Forgot to add i think the correct name might be "sugar sifter"
