Antique Sugar Tongs English Sterling Silver Small

Saccharine tongs or small sugar tongs were used for the artificial sweetner that was quite popular in the late victorian period until being banned in 1911 as a menace to health. The tongs are 3 inches long and are in excellent condition. Shipping in the US by USPS priority insured is $8.90.
