...this one is also well worn, so also would have been used to peel off the pies or biscuits from the oven or fire....the copper rolled rivets joining the base to the iron handle, help us to age this piece as this was a method that was used in the 17thc on warming pans and other lidded implements....I particulary like the shaped ironwork at the base of the handle and the small early burn to the wooden handle....excellent quality and condition for a domestic item.
English. C1680-C1720.
