This antique wooden churn can be used to make your own butter. Just pour fresh cream into the churn and start turning the handle. You'll need to turn it steadily for a while until the cream separates into butter and buttermilk. Be careful when using it as there is a crack in the wood. Avoid using excessive force that might cause the crack to worsen. To maintain this beautiful piece, clean it gently with a soft, dry cloth after each use. Don't soak it in water as the wood might expand or the crack could spread. Store it in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the wood from drying out and cracking further.
