Can anyone tell me what these are used for. Think the one on right could be for an onion but what is the left one for?

I couldn't get the picture to load and it says your photos are private. Adjust your settings to public, perhaps?

claire33 · 26-05-2015, 19:10

Should work now

maggie thecat · 26-05-2015, 19:19

Nope. Still won't load. Still says library is private. Maybe log out of photo bucket after you adjust your settings to verify the change has taken effect?

Patti-Ann · 26-05-2015, 19:25

I can see the pic but haven't a clue what they are, sorry

Hotgossip · 26-05-2015, 19:26

I can see them but can't help ..... Sorry! Are you sure the left one isn't a soap dish?

Is the one on the right a garlic roaster perhaps?

What's a garlic roaster?

maggie thecat · 26-05-2015, 20:09

Still can't see, must be incompatible with my phone, but a garlic roaster is a gimic for roasting whole heads of garlic. Drizzle a little olive oil over a bulb of garlic with the tops trimmed off and roast until smooshy. Roasted garlic has an entirely different flavour than raw or sauted. You spread it on crusty bread for a starter or use it in recipes to give them a boost.

degsyhufc · 26-05-2015, 20:24

The one on the right looks like a generic dish with lid to store food stuff, or other things in. Butter, Cheese etc.

claire33 · 26-05-2015, 21:27

Both have me baffled to what they are.

mrsgrumpy49 · 26-05-2015, 21:56

It might help to know what size they are

Orangemaid · 26-05-2015, 22:19

i would have said salt and pepper shakers ?

Orangemaid · 26-05-2015, 22:20

or one looks like a butter dish with hole in top Lol

Victoria Sponge · 26-05-2015, 22:46

Mythica · 26-05-2015, 23:59

Tea bag holder/strainer and butter dish?

it looks like it could be those

tea bag one is the holey one ( which is upside down in the picture) go on top of the one that's flat and is like a strainer ..looks like it fits inside the other one

swingaleg · 27-05-2015, 21:27

the one with all the holes could be a ceramic plant pot........it sits inside that saucer with the rimmed area to pour water into........the soil soaks the water up through the holes

If you look at standard plant pots they always have holes in the bottom

You've posted them in Food and Drink so you must think they belong here?
They could just as easily be a shaving soap dish on the right and a shaving brush squeezer on the left - but probably aren't!

wildpumpkin · 28-05-2015, 12:24

The one on the left could be an egg separator....turn it upside down and the white goes through the holes leaving the yolk in the little pot.

Right one does look like a garlic roaster, as the knob on top is in the shape of a garlic bulb...I think
