Dazey Jar Churn

This is a hand cranked Dazey Glass Butter Churn No. 40 which was patented on February 14 1922 for use in the kitchen. The base is a 3 quart squarish glass jar with rounded edges and a screw-on metal lid. Inside the jar are 4 small wooden paddles that are attached to a vertical iron rod. This rod pierces the lid and connects up to the gearing system above the lid which is powered by an iron crank handle with a turned wood handle. The operator would remove the lid and pour the cream into the jar base. The lid would then be reattached and the crank handle turned until the butter formed.
