Postage is extra. Cash if picking up locally in Canberra. These 1960-70s galvanised steel and brass skewers were purchased from an antique shop selling only vintage and antique French items. They range in length from 32 to 36 cms. The brass finials are soldered on to the galvanised steel rods and include a rabbit, fish, chicken and native with a huge headdress. There is no sign of rust and I would suggest they have never been used. I couldn't bring myself to spoil their appearance by using them

Now, I don't know about you, but I love peeling spuds if I need to, for example when making corn and bacon chowder (which has potato squares in it). In developing my fetish, I have used all of the versions you see in the main photo. A couple of them have a stainless blade attached to a wooden handle with what looks like tarred or waxed twine and one of these has been reinforced with gaffer tape. Later versions have the serrated edges on

Another Gummie has convinced me that this Whittingslowe pea sheller is the real thing but a later (1950s) model than the other older (1940s) one. So now I am selling them separately. Whittingslowe used chrome plated steel with a small timber handle and rubber rollers. It has some minor rust marks on the inside of the neck but seems clear of other wear signs. There is a short video on u-tube on how these work if you are interested.

The tan leather on the inside is very smooth and fine and sides are mad
