This unique vintage English brass toasting fork features a charming finial depicting a donkey alongside the word “Clovelly,” a picturesque village in Devon, England. Donkeys have long been associated with Clovelly, historically used to navigate its famously steep cobbled streets, carrying goods and supplies for residents. This delightful nod to the village’s heritage makes the toasting fork a meaningful piece of English history.
Traditionally, toasting forks were used by the fireside to toast bread, crumpets, or marshmallows over open flames, creating a cozy and delicious ritual. Today, this piece can still serve its original purpose or be displayed as a decorative accent. With its warm patina, historical connection, and whimsical design, this toasting fork is a perfect addition to a fireplace mantel, country kitchen, or collection of vintage treasures. A practical and charming way to bring a touch of English tradition into your home.
