Description: This rare antique twisted iron carpet beater, marked "Kleene-e-ze, Bristol," is a wonderful example of early 20th-century household tools. The engraving "ENG. 741056" and "REGD - 1928" on the metal collar confirms its date of manufacture and authenticity. Manufactured by Kleene-e-ze, a well-known maker of cleaning tools, this carpet beater is both a functional tool and a decorative vintage item. Carpet beaters were essential in households during the early 1900s for cleaning carpets by hand. The wide, looping twisted iron pattern provided a sturdy yet gentle surface for beating the dust and dirt out of rugs and carpets, making this a practical tool in its time. The wooden handle shows signs of wear, adding character and demonstrating its age and use over time. Despite the wear, it remains solid and well-crafted, offering a firm grip for handling. This antique carpet beater would make an excellent addition to a collection of vintage household tools or a decorative piece in a rustic or period-inspired interior. Condition: Ironwork: The twisted iron structure is still sturdy, with a patina that highlights its age. Some minor surface rust adds to its vintage charm. Handle: The wooden handle has scuffs and chips, but remains functional, retaining much of its original look. Dimensions: Length: 54.5 cm Handle Width: 4 cm Beater Width: 14 cm This carpet beater is a remarkable piece of history, ideal for display in vintage collections or as a unique decorative item. ************* Photos form part of the description.
