Pocket Nutmeg Grater

Grates Everyone's Favorite Spice

Based on Period Example

Handmade in the USA

Nutmeg was so popular that people often carried personal graters in their pockets or bags – a practice that continued well into the 19th century. This Grater is a replica of one found, of all places, in the joint of a summer beam in a 1740s barn that was being dismantled. Store your nutmeg under the sliding brass grater when not using. Handmade of beautiful cherry wood. It measures 4¼” long by 1½” wide. The color of wood may vary between light and dark.
