GRANDMA DAVIS HOMEMADE BREAD
Egg Cutter - Topper - Scissors
EGG CUTTER
Not sure what to call this sweet little utensil; Scissors - Topper - Cutter? Unusual blade and spring action.
No markings other than the French patent-related "Brete .G.D.G."
Great patina and softness to the silver coating. Blade is sharp and spring functions as it should.
