They go together like Oil and Vinegar...

I was out treasure hunting yesterday, hitting the usual haunts.  I was mostly looking for beautiful clothing pieces to list on eBay (when the limit is lifted from my account...got about 27 days to go, I think...uhggg) but I also found some goodies while I was out. 


 I found these cute little Pyrex Oil and Vinegar bottles.  They are just about perfect with all the letters and gold scrollies.


 I love the fancy way they have "vinegar" and "oil" written.



And, of course, I love they are "Made in the USA"

Does anyone know if they have stoppers or some kind of top that might be missing?



I also found a Pyrex measuring cup.  I do not know how "vintage" this is but it says nothing on it about being "microwave safe"....LOL...so I am hopeful ~shrug~.  As you can see it is the one with red letters, a number 516.  A very much needed item for my kitchen.  I had "new measuring cups" on my grocery list since the Hubbie used the old ones to work in the back yard (???!!!???).



I was trying to be artistic with this shot.

  1. Nice finds Tiffany! I found an Oil & Vinegar set a few months ago, and mine do not have the stoppers either, but they are supposed to. Here's a link to a picture of them with stoppers.http://www.goantiques.com/detail,pyrex-cruets-oil,1555012.html

  2. The older measuring cup I used to have (till it broke boo-hoo) had a handle that was joined at the bottom, not the hook type that facilitates stacking them. I think that was a later re-design.

  3. I found these over the weekend as well! My cruets did come with the stopper tops, but after washing them and re-inserting back into the bottles, a piece broke off one of the stoppers as they were very brittle with age. I post a pc later today.
