This fabulous antique grappling iron comes from Chanteduc, the home of Patricia and Walter Wells in Provence. Walter loved collecting old tools that would have been used on their farm. This tool was originally used to lift buckets of water from a well, or for displaying dried sausage - these wrought iron hooks are wonderfully practical. Note, this has been displayed outdoors in the weather for several years so is in a rustic, timeworn condition.
