This antique herb chopper or sugar cleaver oozes quality and style. 

Dating from the late 19th Century, this is a wonderful tactile herb chopper in an unusual shape. 

There are two maker's marks on the steel blade chopper, one of which is for Vaughan's who likely produced the steel. I don't recognise the other.  The steel is encased in a wonderfully tactile treen handle, which has been fixed together with copper rivets, adding an element of sophistication and added quality to the piece.  The circular shape makes it a lovely piece to handle and use.

The steel blade is a little pitted and stained in places, and there are also some patches of staining on the handle. There is a small scorch mark on one side of the handle but this isn't overly notable and it is still a very usable and decorative item for the kitchen.

Length, 15.3cm; Width, 15.2cm, Depth, 1.6cm at handle
