{"product_id":"antique-hand-crank-mayonnaise-churn-with-glass-jar","title":"Antique French Mayonnaise Maker | Cast Iron Crank | Circa 1900","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis antique French mayonnaise maker is exactly the kind of clever kitchen object that makes you stop and smile. Before electric mixers and food processors, this little machine did one job beautifully: oil dripped slowly from the funnel while the crank turned the paddles below, bringing the mayonnaise together by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnown in French as a batteur à mayonnaise mécanique, this piece likely dates from around 1900 to 1920. The head is made with a cast iron crank mechanism, pierced geared wheel, tinplate oil funnel and clear glass jar below. The turned wood handle has been worn smooth from use, which is one of my favorite details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe crank turns freely, the drip valve still opens and the glass jar is clean. Whether displayed with old crocks and wooden spoons or enjoyed as a working curiosity, it brings real French kitchen ingenuity to the room. Useful, unusual and really fun.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Provence Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52712167604567,"sku":"KWE-039","price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/4686\/4215\/files\/vintage-manual-mayonnaise-maker-jar-crank-blades-rustic-kitchen-2.jpg?v=1788803476","url":"https:\/\/theprovencecollection.com\/en-us\/products\/antique-hand-crank-mayonnaise-churn-with-glass-jar","provider":"The Provence Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
