Celery Vases for the Local Gentry
Okay, how many of you grow vegetable gardens?
And of those who do, how many grow celery?  Right. None. 
We can't help but think that the home gardens of Victorians
weren't that much different from ours; "oats, peas, beans, & barley grow";
corn, tomatoes and squash.  So how do we explain the fact that virtually all
patterns that were made between about 1850 - 1910, in more than the
Four Piece Table Set, had a celery vase?!  Tell us if you know.

This 1880 ad for tomato soup shows a celery vase on the table
proving that celery was actually served in these vases 'back then'.


These celery vases are for sale and remember, we probably have more forms/ pieces
of these patterns available, so EMAIL us to see if we have what you want in your pattern.
Please note that unlike other EAPG forms, celery vases are not always
the same height.  While the photos are mostly the same size, be
sure and note the size of the vase - most of which are listed.... I hope.

There is a 'new' use for celery vases that some of our customers have discovered.
That is to use a flat or flat footed celery vase as a 'forker' or even a 'knifer'! They are
using them on a buffet table along with a 'spooner' to sold all the silverware needed.
Who sez we have to do things like the Victorians????

ANY DAMAGE TO THESE PIECES IS NOTED IN THEIR LISTING
