S/5674 Antique Treen Early 19th Century Ash Muffineer

A good example of an early 19th century muffineer, turned in well grained ash, which is unusual as they were usually in fruitwood, beech or sycamore. The perforated screw top has incised lines and a delicate finial and is above an urn shaped body, raised on a circular stepped foot with a concave underside having fine lathe turnings. The whole has a pleasing grain, colour and patination.
