This is an authentic vintage MOULI-GRATER, a classic piece of kitchen history designed and manufactured in FRANCE. Known for its ingenious "rotary" design, this tool revolutionized the way cheese, chocolate, and nuts were grated in mid-century kitchens.
HISTORY AND DESIGN The Mouli-Grater was invented by Jean Mantelet in the 1930s (who later founded the famous company Moulinex). This particular model carries a US PATENT mark, indicating it was part of the high-quality export line produced for the international market. The design features a rotating drum with sharp perforations, operated by a hand crank, which allows for safe and efficient grating without the risk of nicking one's fingers.
