Sugar and Spice Story

Item #1073

(December, 1984) “… and everything nice” in this happy moment of courtship. The young lovers are having an interlude of teasing and flirting on a lovely spring day. Spice has picked a small flower for Sugar. In a moment he may decide to write their initials on the honeysuckle vine. It, like the coin with the vine on it (Israeli)., is symbolic of their two lives woven together , yet remaining independent of each other. On the base all of the acorns are couples. There is a buckeye for good luck and an old chestnut, symbolic of their love which will be warm and long lasting.
