American Wood Pastry Board
21 x 28 inches. This pastry or noodle board is a utilitarian kitchen tool constructed from thick wood planks, likely pine or maple, characteristic of late 19th to early 20th-century American farmhouse kitchenware. The board features a flat rectangular work surface bounded by raised wooden rails on three sides, designed to contain flour and dough during preparation. The side rails are finished with a distinctive curved or scrolled profile at the front edge. The construction employs hand-fitted joints and small metal pins or nails visible along the exterior edges of the trim. The underside and work surface bear various markings, including two vertical lines of green pigment characters on the right side of the main surface (photo 3). These marks are faded and worn, rendering the characters not legible as a specific name or text.
