About the Item
ABOUT
A clock work, wind up "bottle jack" or "fireplace jack" is a rotisserie device used to keep a roast or bird turning in a fireplace to cook evenly. Signed "John Linwood Warranty," this antique from England dates from the mid 1800's. The original brass key winds up the spring mechanism and works well, turning a few revolutions in one direction, it then reverses for even cooking. The 6 1/2" diameter iron wheel has adjustable rings to attach several items to roast.
CREATOR John Linwood Warranty.
DATE OF MANUFACTURE c.1850-1860.
MATERIALS AND TECHNIQUES Brass, Metal, Iron.
CONDITION Good. Wear consistent with age and use. Missing one ring.

HISTORY
