Antique washboard with kneeler

Today a great #piece in my humble opinion, truly #unique: the ancestor of the #washing machine ... when to #washcloths you went to the lake. Well, this contraption is not simply made up of the #washingboard but includes a #kneeler, because to wash clothes you had to lower yourself to the water level but obviously without getting wet. The board thus constructed created a sort of bulkhead protecting from the water, giving the possibility of bending down while being protected. The original #accessories helped to #do the laundry and above all the long #ancienttongs were a valid support for recovering the #clothes without having to lean out too much. It is a large piece, overall the total length is 1.18 meters. It is preferred to customers who wish to display it in an environment usable by the public, precisely because it deserves to be seen and appreciated.
