Improvements in the Construction of Saucepans and the like.
I, MARY GERTRUDE ROBERTS of Pinewood, near Lymington, in the County
of Hampshire, Married Lady, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be
as follows:-
This invention relates to improvements in the construction of saucepans and the
like and has for objects to facilitate the pouring off of the contents of same, and to
render such operation equally simple and practicable whether the saucepan or the
like is held in the right hand or the left.
In accordance with this invention I form the saucepan with two lips or spouts
one placed opposite the other so that from either side the contents may with equal
facility be poured as desired.
In making sauces, melted butter, gruel, and other similar preparations wherein
constant stirring is required even during the operation of pouring off, this my invention
will be found of very great advantage, as whether the operator be right handed or
left handed the hand most convenient for the purpose may be employed for holding
the saucepan whilst stirring with the other.
