Miniature Copper Rake (Nail Rake) to hold and one could use it

and one could use it as a tasting or a serving spoon--or

suggesting an infinite multitude of women engaged in this never-ending

This would be great hanging in the kitchen for keeping a grocery or to do list

There may also be a bit of warping to the box itself such that the top and bottom aren't exactly flush

and I don't think detracts

Miniature Copper Rake (Nail Rake) to hold and one could use itThis beautiful little copper object, with a rake on one end and what looks rather like a spade on the other, from what I understand is actually an old nail rake, which would have been used in a general store to scoop or sort nails. It's really a lovely thing, which now could be used to rake sand in a tabletop zen garden, or as a paperweight, or just as a another great little object to set somewhere. Great condition with a beautiful patina. 5 1 8" long
