Material: tin

Additional Information: An authentic antique primitive tin six-egg poacher dating to the early twentieth century. Constructed of tin-plated steel, this clever kitchen utensil features six individual poaching rings mounted to a circular tray with perforated bottoms for even cooking. The distinctive spring-loaded wire handle folds and locks into position, allowing the entire tray to be lowered into and lifted from a pot with ease.

Early kitchen gadgets such as this were staples of American farmhouses and country kitchens before the widespread use of modern nonstick cookware. Today they are highly sought after for primitive kitchen collections, farmhouse decor, and culinary antiques.

The untouched surface has developed a pleasing aged patina that reflects decades of honest use without diminishing its display appeal.
