Toasting cup provides trial for brides and grooms past and present
The wedding cup that looks like a woman holding a swiveling cup above her head is showing up at modern wedding celebrations. The cup is used for a toast and as a trial for the bride and groom.
According to tradition, the earliest swivel cups were made about 1450 in Nuremberg, Germany. A wealthy nobleman disapproved of his daughter's choice of a husband, a goldsmith. The father had the goldsmith sent to a dungeon, but the girl became ill and her father finally agreed to a test for her beloved.
If the goldsmith could make a chalice that two people could drink from at the same time without spilling a drop, the pair could wed. The goldsmith made the swiveling cup and they were permitted to marry.
Today the cups are being made again and a newly married couple must drink from the cup at the same time to ensure a happy marriage. The lady-shaped cup is turned upside-down and the husband drinks from the skirt, the wife from the small cup that has now swiveled to be right side up. It is a difficult but possible task.
Look for old cups made of silver or glass. Several were offered this year at the for $700 to $2,400. Reproductions can be found online.
Q I own a beautiful Kroehler buffet that belonged to my grandmother. She and my grandfather bought it when they were first married, decades ago. I have never used it, and it's in great shape. Now I would like to sell it. What should I ask for it?
A: bought the Naperville (Ill.) in 1902 but didn't name it until the early 1910s. The brand still exists, but the original company closed.
Generally, it's a good idea to sell a large piece of furniture locally, so advertise it in your own city. What you can get for it depends on its style, age and condition. Assuming your buffet dates from the 1930s or 1940s, you could try asking $500,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but you probably will have to settle for less.
Q: I've been collecting dolls for a very long time but have never been able to find any information about a doll I got in 1957. She is 10 1/2 inches tall and has a child's body, blond hair and open-close eyes. She's wearing a pink-and-white-striped dress with silver trim, a "mink" stole,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and white shoes and socks.
She's never been out of the original box. On the outside of the box, it reads "Here Comes `Little Miss Addie.' " Can you tell me anything about this doll and its value?
A: Little Miss Addie was a premium offered by "AD," a laundry detergent,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in 1957. AD stood for "Automatic Detergent." The doll was advertised as "a $6.95 value for only $3 and an AD box top." An 8-inch little-sister doll was offered in 1958. The dolls are attributed to the Not much is known about this company except that it sold inexpensive toddler dolls during the 1950s. Your doll is worth $30 to $40 if it's mint-in-box.
