A lovely example of an antique carved English breadboard, dating from the early 20th Century, with the word "Bread" clearly carved into its border.
This is a good example of a carved bread board, dating from around the 1920s. Carved breadboards were extremely popular household items at the time. Although this board has been well used, the hand carving of ‘Bread’ on its border is deeply carved, and is still very crisp and clear. This is flanked by simple foliage carvings which frame the motto.
This antique breadboard sits flat and is a very usable piece. There is a small crack on one side but this is mostly notable on the back and doesn't affect the stability of the piece in any way. There are numerous knife marks from use but, combined with the rich colour of the board, this adds to the patina of the piece.
It’s a good size and is a very attractive and highly usable piece of antique kitchenalia.
Width, 26.5cm; Height, 2cm
