This is an Italian-made, all-aluminum die-cast potato masher purchased over 23 years ago at Kochi Daimaru. I bought it to add a touch of luxury and enrich my life. I don't make potato dishes very often, so I haven't used it much. There is some corrosion typical of aluminum, but it still shines. Inside the handle, there's a plastic tape printed with "2002.1.26" (the purchase date) using a label maker. It can be cleaned off with alcohol, but I'm selling it as is. Are you interested in potato dishes or cooking with this? It might add some richness to your life. The box has a handwritten note of the purchase date "2002.1.26 Sat" and some tears. This item is not suitable for those who are concerned about minor details, so please refrain from purchasing. Shipping will be via anonymous delivery using the Rakuraku Mercari courier service, approximately 60 size.
