Hickety Pickety - JP3269
"Hickety Pickety, my black hen,
she lays eggs for gentlemen:
Gentlemen come everyday to see
what my black hen doth lay."
This old nursery rhyme was fun inspiration for the development of this design.
The tine is a larger size than any of our other chicken tines. It is about 15" long, 9" wide and 6" tall.
Important note about this new tine that comes in the bundle:
The original piece has stitching on the back side of the tine. Our new version does not have this. Also, please take note when opening or closing the tine. There is a small piece in the tail that comes out. After removing this piece, the tail pieces come straight up and out and the lid will come right off.
A note about the design:
Jo Sonja's design has chip-carved (the triangular shapes) detailing on the tail, handle and head of the tine. The tine in the bundle is NOT chip-carved - she had this added. These features can easily be painted in for a very similar look.
