Mini brown water set. Whats it purpose?
« on: February 07, 2015, 10:32:43 AM »
This belongs to my mum it is a mini size like a water set but much much smaller that you keep by your beside.  Would it be for medicine?  Can anyone tell me anything about it?  Thanks

Just a water jug and tumbler I believe, for your bedside table, ;D ;D

Its too small, the glass would give you one mouthful if that, it is mini size.  Its not full size.  Is it for a doll or medicine?

Looks a bit big for doll furniture, maybe just for a single glass of water ?

It wouldnt make it a single glass of water its too small, one mouthful...You would remain thirsty lol.  I have small hands and you can see from the photo the glass is smaller than my hand.  I have seen the glass and bottles for the bedside and it is no where near that size.  It is strange that it is brown as I believe that is usually associated with medicines.

Perhaps for a child's bedside rather than an adult?  Or a liqueur / whisky set for a man's fireside table? ;)
