Description: This is beautiful just as something to set around even if you never intend to use it. It has a gorgeous patina. Imagine all the leaves that were actually made with this. This is a really rare 3 piece set that's complete. Makes a large Holly leaf. At first I was a little puzzled and thought it might be a Maple leaf but then saw a little bit of silver foil clinging to the mold and realized it had been used with silver foil paper to make Christmas Holly leaves. You don't have to always use fabric with the molds. You can use foil paper or other papers. Just experiment a little. First, there is the cutter. It's 5 inches tall and the cutter head is about 4 inches across and 3 1/2 inches long. (please note that it's not like cutting out cookies. You'll need a heavy rubber mallet and a LOT of force) The cutter is made of iron. There is also a 2 part leaf mold complete with top and bottom. The bottom and top parts are made of I believe bronze. Top is 4 inches wide by 9 inches long including the wood handle. It's 1 1/4 inches thick. The bronze bottom is 4 1/2 by 3 1/2 inches. It's one inch thick. When you put the top and bottom together it's 1 3/4th inch thick. You could clean this up a bit more and have it as shiny as the day it was made if you like. I do put a light coating of beeswax on it to keep any iron parts from rusting.
