19th Century French Chef's Pounder on Marble Plinth

$1,800.00

This 19th-century French chef's pounder tool, carved from walnut, has a charming, worn look only centuries of use can give. One end is a round, mallet-like pounder, and the other tapers into a handy wedge. The tool's rich patina tells tales of countless meals prepared with love and care. The walnut’s aged grain glows warmly, smoothed by generations of chefs.

Perched on a marble plinth, this humble kitchen tool suddenly looks like a Brancusi sculpture. The contrast between the natural wood and sleek marble turns it into a striking visual piece. With its blend of history and art, this pounder isn’t just for the kitchen anymore. It's ready for a spot in any modernist art collection, where its quirky charm and timeless beauty can be admired in a whole new light.
