"Swedish Grinder, 19th Century Folk Art"
I see the back and forth movement led with force by the mother, on the kitchen table, by the light of the oil lamp which weakly illuminates the only living room of the chalet. The frost is already forming on the window as if to embellish the dark night, in the middle of the forest….Afterwards, she will light the fire… In fact I read too many novels… It is indeed a very clever household tool of Swedish folk art from the 19th century. It is the equivalent of our mortars and pestles…. Coffee, spices, garlic, everything that needs to be ground will seal its fate there. In perfect condition. 36cm x25xm 16cm
