Peter Petrie Extraordinary Egg Separator Pottery Snot Nose Gag Kitchen Tool

Peter Petrie Extraordinary Egg Separator Pottery Snot Nose Gag Kitchen Tool  A wonderfully weird conversation piece! This is Peter Petrie’s Extraordinary Egg Separator, a handmade-style pottery kitchen gadget designed to separate egg whites from yolks in a particularly memorable way—the egg white flows out through the figure’s nostrils when the separator is tilted.  The piece has a speckled beige/tan glaze with a dimensional face, prominent nose, dark mustache, and applied ears. Bottom is marked “P.P. Petrie Designs ©.”  Even better, this example includes the original Owner’s Operating Manual, which identifies it as Peter Petrie’s Extraordinary Egg Separator and explains exactly how to use it. The instructions note that it was made in Maine by Birchstone Tooling of Fryeburg, Maine and humorously warn: “It ‘SNOT A MUG.”  A fun collectible for anyone who loves unusual pottery, novelty kitchen gadgets, quirky kitchen decor, gag gifts, or oddities.
