Wooden Sieves Or Screens
It was still physically demanding to be an apprenticeat the drugstore…
It was often the “youngster” who had to get to worksifting the powders…

These three wooden sieves, stacked inorder of decreasing mesh size, are in impeccable condition, yet bear the marks ofthe work of days gone by.
