*We recently purchased an exceptional collection of Food Choppers that were obviously collected over a period of time by an individual who carefully chose the best examples to collect. There are 14 Food Choppers altogether and are much larger than what are commonly found.  A number are signed and they date from the 16th to the 19th Century. What a wonderful thing to collect and display as a grouping, either large or small. Each one is a work of art and each unique in its own way.
