I KNOW that I know what this is, but I don't know if I know it's an egg poacher, or a lemon squeezer. Perhaps my memory is clogged by visions of Eggs Benedict and hollandaise sauce ...
In a box lot, but very cool advertising tin piece from a Brooklyn piano store.

TIA.

Actually, it looks like an egg separator.

Egg Separator. Separates the egg yolk from the white.
I have one in red.

It looks to me like an egg separator. When you just want the whites OR the yolks, you break the egg and pour it through this gizmo (with something underneath to catch the drip.

By today's standards, it looks like an egg separator but I don't think it is one. They used the cracked egg shell to separate the eggs. I think it's something else.

It's a single cooker for escargot.

Tom...If it were a mountain oyster tenderizer, wouldn't there be a companion wooden mallet to go with it?
