Old Swedish butter paddle
Antique wooden Swedish butter paddle, often called a smörspade in Sweden.
They are often carved from a single piece of wood and often have decorative indentations.
In the 19th or early 20th century, carving kitchen utensils was a standard winter activity on Swedish farms. It was also believed at the time that wood preserved the flavor of butter better than metal. That's why they are so popular.
