Cleaning cast iron pots and pans or any other messy food preparation was a kitchen chore in olden days.  So this invention of a chain link pot scrubber came in handy. Dating from the late Victorian, early part of the 1900's.

The shape is straight across the one end and a V shape at the other.  The pot scrubber is 6" long from the point to the other side.  Width is 4" wide.

Condition is very nice considering it was a working tool. A tinge of rust but basically clean.
