complete set of large Lord Nelson sugar jars for sale on eBay for Charity by Dove House Hospice(ends 12 May, 2015 20:04:40 BST)

Dove House Hospice* is currently selling this complete set of large vintage Lord Nelson sugar jars. It took us AGES to complete the set we own; picking them up one by one, as and when we came across them. Here’s a ready made set!

They’ve already had a couple of bids but they’re still currently only £16 + £7.70 postage. They are described as being in ‘good’ condition.  There’s no damage and all their seals are intact. I’d say that would mean they’re in excellent condition – all they need is a wash in soapy water!

If anyone has one of the smaller, matching sugar shakers/dredgers for sale, let me know. I won’t consider our set to be truly ‘complete’ until we have both the caster sugar and the icing sugar shaker in our possession! 🙂

*Dove House Hospice offers specialist palliative care to adults with life limiting illnesses, palliative care is the total care of a patient whose disease is no longer able to be cured. There is no charge for their services & they rely on funds raised in the community.

We’ve sold a few these vintage Lord Nelson sugar containers in our shop in the past – but they don’t come along that often. This Brown Soft Sugar storage jar is currently being sold on eBay for Charity in support of Pembrokeshire Frame Ltd*. It’s very of its time – illustrated with the Tate + Lyle sugar bag design from the 60s or 70s.

As well as the Brown soft sugar storage jar, there are Icing sugar, Caster sugar and London demerara sugar available. The jars come in two sizes and you can also get the caster sugar design as a sugar shaker/dredger. We have a personal collection of these jars that we use on a daily basis – but alas, we need the large demerara jar to complete our set – if you have one to sell, please get in touch!
