I've only ever seen one other ball handled sugar and that was on Trade Me ....

This is very rare and significant. I was given a pic once but they were from 2 different patterns, i.e they didn't match. Well spotted Ev.

Well ain't we just lucky that someone in our community now owns this piece! I am most pleased to add this piece to my collection!

Rare as rare.... I've been a Dorothy Thorpe collector for a long time and have one of the most significant collections, I have only ever seen 3 of these before now so this really is a prized piece for me.

That is really brilliant Duckie
I was hoping that someone would bring it home !!
Fantastic and Congratulations

Awesum

Thank you, and yes I agree, it's awesome. 😝

I feel that it being the Pine colour is even more rare to the point where before now you would have sworn they didn't exist in Pine, of the 3 I have seen before none of them were in this Pine pattern, this is the first one to surface since I've been a collector.

Hi! I've been sorting through my mother's possessions and have come across what looks to me like a Pine sugar bowl -- no lid, though. Can anyone identify this for me?

Yes that is correct Chris, though not worth very much without the Ball Handled Lid ...
