19th Century French Espalier Rake on Custom Mount

About the Item

This 19th-century French rake embodies the rustic charm of rural craftsmanship. Featuring a forked espalier handle, it highlights the intricate process of espalier, where trees are pruned and trained over several years to grow in a flat, decorative manner against a framework. This meticulous method often takes five to ten years before a tree can be harvested and repurposed. The rake's curved head, adorned with dozens of finely carved wooden pegs, showcases the artisanship of the past. Mounted on a custom steel frame, this rake transforms from a simple farming tool into a striking piece of art. Ideal for adding a touch of sophistication to any space, it is perfect for a chic restaurant or a cozy country house. Explore our collection of mounted farm tools to create a captivating installation that merges functionality with aesthetic appeal.
