EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases an intricately designed Tea Measuring Machine from the year 1909, manufactured by Sumerland & Co. The machine, a testament to the ingenuity of the early 20th century, is a marvel of precision and functionality. The image captures the essence of the machine in its prime, with the turn of a handle initiating the meticulous process of measuring the perfect amount of tea leaves. The machine's exterior is adorned with delicate engravings and intricate details, reflecting the craftsmanship of the era. The central feature of the machine is the large, circular hopper at the top, where tea leaves were poured in before measurement. The leaves were then funneled through a series of chutes and sieves, allowing only the desired amount to fall into the waiting teapot below. The machine's security is ensured by the presence of a sturdy padlock, which fastens the hopper lid, preventing unauthorized access. This added feature not only ensured the freshness and quality of the tea leaves but also added an element of exclusivity to the tea-making process. The turn of the century was a time of innovation and progress, and this Tea Measuring Machine by Sumerland & Co is a prime example of the advancements made during this period. The machine's ability to measure tea leaves with precision and consistency revolutionized the way tea was prepared and enjoyed, making it an essential addition to any well-appointed household in the 1900s.
