Folk Art of Europe & Rest of World »
Interesting Group of Antique Rustic Kitchenalia
Ref: 4006
This could be a display in a museum of rustic bygones - all items sourced from the mountains in Eastern Europe, in Western Europe industrial materials and techniques changed the material culture of the farmyard and country living but in remoter parts of Europe there were peoples living in pre-industrial lifestyle with everything made of wood.
The sword here is curious - a toy - or for some other purpose - to stir or whisk....the spoon has no hollow in the head so also must have been made for some specific task.
