Scope note
Small casters intended primarily for sprinkling sugar, cinnamon, or other spices on hot muffins. They are typically historical objects. They may be part of a set with a small milk or cream pitcher designed to be set at table or on a breakfast tray when muffins are served, but they are usually not part of a larger set of casters in a special tray used at the formal dining table. They may be of cylindrical or baluster shape, or squatter, and made of metal, glass, or porcelain.
