Using this antique wooden churn is quite simple. Just pour your cream into the churn and start the churning process. You can use a wooden plunger or a similar tool to agitate the cream until it turns into butter. As this is an antique piece, it's important to handle it with care. Avoid dropping or banging it, as the wood might crack. When it comes to maintenance, wipe it clean with a dry cloth after each use. Don't soak it in water, as the wood could warp. If there's any stubborn dirt, use a mild soap and a damp cloth, then dry it thoroughly right away.
