Shoulder Yoke, Dairy, Original Green Paint
New England
Early, great color and surface

This great example was used in the milking process; the heavy milk pails were carried, usually by women, back to the buttery with the aid of a shoulder yoke, shaped to fit around the neck and sit on the shoulders. Hanging from this example are very old pieces of rope and a Civil War era (based on rivets) piece of leather strap from which hang extremely rare blacksmith made forged iron hangers that are pierced and are flatted to accommodate the flat handles of cooper-made pails; the terminus of these matching hangers is tightly scrolled.
