Iron, Seat

Shoulder stick, Sabbathday Lake, ME

Object ID:

Community:
Maine, Sabbathday Lake
Description

Wooden shoulder stick with an edge iron at one end. The ends of one side are cut down and rounded off in differing heights and widths, creating a protruding piece of wood. This makes up the edge iron end of the shoulder stick. The sides continue, with the edges being cut off to create a hexagonal shape where the shaft meets a quarter-circle, foot-like shape. The sides increase in size so that the "foot" is wider and longer than the shaft on all sides. The flatter portion of the "foot" also has its edges cut off.
