They're not mine

You may remember 10 blips ago I blipped the shoes I will be wearing as cooks and housekeeper in The Railway Children. Imagine my surprise when I saw these in the housekeeper's room. Almost identical!

Yesterday I asked if anyone could identify the white, narrow object in the right hand corner of the room. It is a sugar loaf. This is the way sugar was sold. In the 17th century Amsterdam was the centre for sugar distribution. The Miniaturist by Jessie Burton is set in this world. It's an interesting read. It was also a BBC play in 2018.
