Manufacturer: Aluminum Cookie Cutters
This is an antique or vintage aluminum cookie cutter with a green wood handle likely from the 1930s or 1940s, although we don't know the age for certain. It is round but has two screws on the underside which suggest that it may have once had an inner piece to perhaps create a doughnut shaped cookie. These inner pieces were usually twisted onto and off screws like this. However any inner piece was not present when we obtained this cookie cutter.
What is most distinguishing about this piece, however, is the very large or oversized wood handle versus what is usually seen. The handle is shaped kind of like a square that curves inwards and then out again at the base for easier gripping. The cutter has a diameter of about 2 9/16 inches. The handle itself is about 1 7/8 inches long, causing the full cookie cutter to sit about 3 inches in height. The side walls of the cutter are smooth. While the handle is fully attached to the cutter when you shake the piece while holding the handle the base part wobbles slightly.
The old cookie cutter is in nice overall used shape. It is not mint and was used in baking cookies. The green paint on the handle is in pretty good condition for its age. It is largely all there albeit worn along the carved edges and you can see the striations in the wood through the green paint. The aluminum surface has an overall used, worn look from years of making cookies, with lots of scratches, spotting, scuffing, dirt, tarnishing and general wear. The outside of the cutter has also been bent over the years and is no longer perfectly round. None of this is unexpected for a used piece of this age adds to the believeability of its age.
A nice cookie cutter to add to any cookie cutter or baking utensil collection or an overall collection of kitchen utensils with green wood handles.
Please note that we have other cookie cutters and many other kitchen items listed separately for sale. If you wish to purchase more than one, please e-mail us before placing the order since the shipping information has been inputted for a purchase of just one and will not calculate the savings you would get when purchasing more than one shipped together in the same package (we will need to handle this for you). |
