Cypriot handmade antique sickle , forged iron
- Condition: Used
This handmade Cypriot sickle is a rare piece of rural history. Crafted in the early to mid-20th century, it features a curved iron blade and a carved wooden handle — both made by hand using time-honored methods.
Local blacksmiths shaped the blade by heating and hammering the metal into form. At the same time, skilled woodworkers crafted the handle to fit comfortably in the hand. Farmers across Cyprus used this tool to cut wheat, barley, and wild herbs. Unlike today’s machines, this sickle relied entirely on human rhythm and strength.
Today, it serves as more than just a vintage tool. It’s a decorative object that tells a story. Whether placed in a farmhouse kitchen, displayed in a garden-themed space, or added to a traditional Cypriot collection, this item draws attention.
In fact, its aged surface and weathered details reflect years of real fieldwork. Every mark carries the memory of honest labor and simple living.
