Notes | English. Davidson Glass "Lemon Squeezer". Listed in the Davidson English Pressed Glass catalogue (Approx. 1940). Pattern also listed in their late 1890s catalogue. Reproduced by a Chinese maker in 2004. It was sold in Australia in Big W department stores. See: New_Juicers_581.htm, New_Juicers_582.htm and New_Juicers_583.htm I have seen other modern copies that look more like glass produced in India although they are probably all made in China. They have a much thinner tab handle and the detail of the handles suggest that there is more than one manufacturer. Colours known for the 'reproductions' include green, blue and pink. Update: 2018. I have purchased a blue and a green example with the same features as the blue juicer mentioned above. It has a barcoded label describing them as "Juicer glass azure" and "Juicer glass pistachio" by "Wheel&Barrow", a chain of stores in Australia. |
