Vintage kitchen chopper with a glass measuring cup base, made by American company Hazel Atlas and used to chop the nuts you need for your recipes
In vintage condition, there is rust to the lid and the band holding on the wooden handle and the knob to the end of the plunger / chopper is missing, as is the wooden disc which would have been in the bottom of the jar. I cannot remove the lid, but you may be stronger than me!
Has measurements up to 1 /12 cups / 12 OZ on the measuring cup
Identifying this nut chopper was quite easy to do because it is very clearly marked, and the manufacturer’s marks are well-known. Hazel Atlas glass has a distinct “H over A” mark that the company began using around 1923. The #5093 is the style of the jar, and the numbers below that tell us the glass mould number (2)
Would make a wonderful addition to that farmhouse/shabby chic display
No chips or cracks on the glass.
Glass jug measures 12.5cms high, base is 6cms diameter
