Item Number: SV-04
Approximate Size: 5¼″ H (Syrup & Cover) – 8 oz.
Production Dates: 1938-1944
The Syrup & Cover was introduced in 1938, towards the end of the art-deco period. At the very same time, other companies offered similar designed syrup servers. The 3-piece syrup combo, which included a 6″ Syrup Plate, did not have a long life. The set was produced for only six years.
The Syrup, Cover & Plate is a beautiful combination! Please be sure to read the post on the Syrup Plate, as these are often misidentified. They were made from the mould of the 6″ Bread and Butter Plate; therefore, they look remarkably similar. The main difference between the two pieces is that the Syrup Plate will “usually” have taller side edges and a slightly deeper indentation in the center of the plate (to accommodate the Syrup).
The catalog data states that the Syrup is about 3¾″ high; however, that measurement is only accurate when measuring the Syrup without the Cover. Since the Syrup & Cover was never sold without the top, the measurement I have stated above (5¼″) is referencing the height of the Syrup with the Cover on. The holding capacity of 10 ounces was also inaccurate in the catalog data. A more accurate holding capacity would be approximately 8 ounces, which I have disclosed above.
