pine chip holder

This pine chip holder is a perfect example of intelligent design. A pine chip is inserted between two iron parts and held in place by the weight.

The holder and weight are made of iron, the stand is made of wood. The four axles are slightly curved and have good support. The wood has a rough surface in the best sense of the word, which gives it its rustic character. The pine chip holder is from the 18th century and is a folkloristic example.
