Описание
A buttrees, or hoof scraper, was used by a farrier to prepare the horse’s hoof for shoeing. This buttress is made of wrought iron and dates from the eighteenth century. It has two arms which have round open ends that contain a ball. One arm extrudes beyond the first and has a flat end with a sharp edge. The shorter arm also has a smaller round end.
