Wonderful hand-forged iron or steel cooking spatula featuring a pierced heart design in the blade and a beautifully forged curled scroll at the end of the handle for hanging.
The long flat handle displays irregularities and tool marks consistent with hand forging, including decorative paired chisel/notch marks along the handle. The dark aged surface, subtle pitting and handmade character give this piece a wonderful primitive Early American / colonial-style appearance.
Measures approximately 15 inches long, with the blade measuring approximately 3 inches wide.
Maker and exact age are unknown. This is being described as Early American style rather than attributed to a specific historical period, as traditional blacksmith-made utensils continued to be produced in later periods.
Condition is good overall with age/use-related surface wear, darkening, oxidation/patina, pitting, tool marks and irregularities associated with a hand-forged iron piece. Please review all photographs closely as they are part of the condition description.
A beautiful piece for a primitive kitchen, colonial or Early American collection, farmhouse display, hearth décor, blacksmith collection, or vintage kitchen utensil collection.
