Brass Crumb Scoop CT16

Original, quality late 19th century brass crumb scoop with a deep embossed detail of acanthus leaves. These were used to clear away crumbs on the dining table cloth brushes were not needed. It only works on a table cloth, not just the table top. Has been polished and lacquered, although the lacquer may be removed at no extra cost. A most unusual example, complete and in good and working order.
