This amazing little 19th century forged iron dough scraper was most likely made for a child or young adult due to its unusually small size. It could also have been a salesmans sample, however, I have never seen a salesmans sample in this form. But I am not ruling out the possibility. It appears to be well used, but in excellent condition with a wonderful patina. It measures just under 3" in height. The scraper blade measures 3-1/4" by 3-1/2". The handle is 3" in length (just the right size for a child's small hand). It originated in Pennsylvania but was purchased from a Midwestern estate. A rare find!
