Egg Slicer, 1900-1930
Add to SetSummary
Decorative--and useful--this chicken-themed egg slicer was used for soft-boiled eggs served at the breakfast table. Scissor-like, it cut through shells to remove the top of the eggs as they stood upright in egg cups. Soft-boiled eggs delivered tender egg whites and liquid yolks.
