Description

I bought this at a yard sale from a 70 year old Czech lady who said her grandmother use to sit and use this tool in her garden.  That is all I know about the object.  She said she would sell it to me because she could tell I would take very good care of it.  I would like to know how old it is, what it is, and the value, if any.
