Antique Primitive Rustic Small Metal Pineapple Pruner - Clipper:
$29.00
Antique metal kitchen tool. 6\" long. It is a pineapple tip clipper. For cutting off the little sharp ends on the pineapple. I never saw one before this.The pineapple was hard to come by in early America. Women would give them to their friends after they had enjoyed displaying them on their own dining room tables. To us it would seem very odd to prize a pineapple that was clearly going bad. The pineapple was a symbol of friendship and possibly wealth. The pineapple is often seen depicted on many colonial / primitative style objects. This is one cool tool to display in your country kitchen!
