SLOW DÉCOR FOR AN INTENTIONAL LIFESTYLE.
This is the first time I've come across these butcher's hooks. In fact, I had to ask the vendor for its purpose and they didn't know! So thanks to Mr. Google, I can tell you in all certainty THIS is an antique butcher's hook. It was multi-purposed and gave the butcher three settings (three rungs/holes), and one hook. The hook itself is made of cast iron and has a fine point.
A lovely piece of kitchen history here! The hook measures 15 cm.
Sourced at the Foire de Chatou, France.
