Cheese shovel from 1842
Length 17.5 cm. It is stamped De tre Tårne 42 for the year 1842, PRH for Peter R Hinnerup who was stadsguardein from 1840 to 1863, a lion for being produced in the sign of the lion, 22/7-21/8 and a slightly illegible master stamp. Unfortunately, we cannot identify it. The spade has a double fluted handle finished with a scallop. The shovel itself is slightly sharp at the front so that it can cut into the cheese. It is decorated with curved ornaments and a cow and a bull on a dotted background. It is needle punched on the back with the year 1846. The cheese shovel is in very good condition.
