Manufacturer: Vintage 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. This is a Christmas cookie cutter or vintage holiday cutter in the shape of Santa Claus carrying his sack or bag of toys on his back. It measures about 3 9/16 inches long, 2 1/4 inches wide and sits about 1 1/2 inches in height to the top of the wood handle.
While the handle is fully attached to the old cookie cutter and will not come loose, it is not tight and has some "play room". If you shake the cookie cutter holding the handle, the base aluminum portion shakes and can be spun around freely in the air if you push it. The handle does not sit totally straight when viewed from the side, but at a slight angle, due to some denting/pushing in of the aluminum as will be further explained below. The outer edges of this cutter are smooth, they are not ridged or scalloped.
The old cookie cutter came out of a home and is in vintage used shape as it was likely used in a lot of baking cookies. The top aluminum surface is not flat as when it was made, but is lower or pushed in around the handle, causing concave sections to the topside of the head, shoulder and front body portions of this cutter (the denting is most pronounced to the head portion). You can also see the curves when looking from the underside of this piece. This piece sits flat on a table (and does not wobble when placed on a table), with very slight differences in spots as to how flat the cutter lays against the table (ie. a few spots sit higher from the table, but not bad at all). There is a tiny spot on the head where the aluminum lower side edge has been pushed in or pushed up a tad where it meets the table.
The aluminum portion has expected wear from scratches, scuffs, rubbed spots, a few dark dots, perhaps a few tiny pin rust dots, some light spotting, and other signs of wear. The wood handle also shows age/use wear via a vertical paint wear line on one side, paint wear around the base, other dots of paint wear, black dotting/wear on/near the handle top, with other general use wear.
Fun cookie cutter that would make a nice addition to any cookie cutter or baking utensil collection or an overall collection of kitchen utensils with green wood handles. Would also make a nice addition to any grouping of Santa Claus or Christmas collectibles. With the holes in the aluminum top, a crafty person could also string wire and hang this as an ornament on a Christmas tree as a fun addition.
Please note that we have other cookie cutters, many other kitchen items, and many other Christmas items listed separately for sale. If you wish to purchase more than one listing, please e-mail us before placing the order since the shipping information has been inputted for a purchase of just one listing and will not calculate the savings you would get when purchasing more than one listing shipped together in the same package (we will need to handle this for you). |
