Thread: Scuttle and mug find

These were found in a china cabinet that was my wifes great grandfathers. I have looked around the internet to see if I can find any info on them but no luck so far. The only imprint is "7355" on the bottom of the scuttle and nothing on the other mug. To be honest and forgive my ignorance, I am not even sure what the purpose is of the piece that goes across the other mug or how to use it. The scuttle I know how to use just fine the other one has me confused. Anyone out there recognize these or can tell me where I may find out more info on them. Since they are family items I never plan to get rid of them but would love to know more about them since I will display them in a case along with some other antique razors that belonged to my family. Thanks in advance for anyone who can help me identify or find out more about these. Have a great week gentlemen!
