Beautiful and functional makes it completely perfect.

Isn't it wonderful to find beauty in function? I love its simplicity ... and its usefulness. Enjoy.

I just wish I had a place for something that handy and useful, but alas and alack, I don't. Happy Sunday, dear one.

Nothing like fresh squeezed. My plastic short one is falling apart. I need to find something similar.

Very nice. I can practicaly smell the lemons and oranges from here. It probably won't surprise you to know that I have a few of those in green depression glass. ;)

Love that it is nontech. I'm in Manise's camp. My plastic one just sux.

Hmm, I think I might have to go and make some lemon bars!

My Mom had a "juicing" implement similar to that, but it didn't have a pitcher underneath. (We're talking 1950's here!) It didn't get used very often. There were 4 children and 2 adults in the house so that required a lot of hand-labor to make enough juice for all of us. As we got older, we helped out, but it was still a special occasion that only happened a couple of times a year when the oranges were at their juiciest! Enjoyed seeing the picture; I hadn't thought about our fresh squeezed juice in years!
