About the product

Antique Teakwood Butter Churner (Dasher) | Early 19th-Century Indian Kitchen Tool & Farmhouse Décor

Hand-Carved in India • Solid Aged Teak • Authentic Culinary Heritage

Step back into the rhythms of rural India with this antique teakwood butter churner stick, locally known as a dasher. Hand-carved in the early 1800s from dense, durable teakwood, this heirloom tool once transformed curd into fresh butter, lassi, and buttermilk in traditional Indian kitchens. Today, its warm natural patina, visible hand-tool marks, and sculptural silhouette make it an exceptional piece of farmhouse décor, rustic styling, or heritage collection.

✦ What Makes This Dasher Collectible

  • Documented Early 19th-Century Origin – an authentic artefact, not a reproduction.

  • Solid Teak Construction – prized for strength, pest resistance, and its rich, enduring grain.

  • Hand-Carved Detailing – turned rings along the handle and scalloped paddle edges showcase artisanal skill.

  • Functional Meets Decorative – still sturdy for light whisking, yet ideal for display in modern homes.

  • Cultural Significance – represents India’s age-old dairy traditions and the self-sufficient lifestyle of rural communities.
