19th
Century Sugar Devil
This wrought
iron sugar devil or fruit auger has a great look and great patina. These were
used to break up fruit or packed sugar in casks or barrels and there are several
different versions that can be found. This one has a patent date in the late
1800's on the shank. You just do not see this sort of Americana anymore!

Tiered
Antique Wooden Herb Drier
At least that is what I think it is.
It folds up and would store until needed. It stands only about 2 feet tall
so I don't believe it is for laundry. Usually attributed to
the Shakers, but we are not going to go there.

Clock
Work Twisting Rotisserie by Salter
I am not really sure what this was
for, but it slowly twists in the air when wound up. I had been told advertising
of some sort would hang from it and it would catch the buyer's eye when he was in
the General Store or Hardware Store and saw the item moving above his head.
That what I was told anyway. But I have always seen them offered as a rotisserie
/ roaster used at the hearth for over the fire, but there is a lot of paint on this
for it to have been used for that. It kind of has the look of a fly
fan with the clockwork mechanism, but I have never seen one like this that would
hang.
