Butter anyone?



 These with the geared handles look pretty serious. Women never had to worry about keeping their upper arms in shape in those days!




 Yes, a pitcher of clay, for milk or other libations!

And the final question, how many people could make butter with one of these today? Is this an art form that our ancestors used frequently that has been lost?  I sure hope not.
