Period
This artifact was used both by the donor, and the donor's father as a display piece in their home between the 1960's and 2015.
Canada
The donor’s father was a dairy scientist with the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food for some 41 years. He collected old items related to dairying, and these items ended up with the donor upon his passing. He would go antique shopping in the Gananoque region of Ontario as well as trade some of his old clothing items. His exchanges were quite often for antique bottles found across the northern part of Leeds County. The donor further bolstered the collection with antiques from the eastern Townships in his quest to recreate a general store set in the 1890s in his basement in the Glebe neighborhood of Ottawa. Le père du donateur était un scientifique des produits laitiers qui travaillait pour le ministère de l'Agriculture et de l'Alimentation de l'Ontario pour plus de 41 ans. Il a collectionné des artefacts qui correspondaient à son métier. Son fils a contribué à la collection en magasinant pour des antiques dans la région de Gananoque en Ontario. Il a aussi augmenté la collection en échangeant ces vêtements usagés contre des bouteilles antiques retrouvé au travers Leeds Compté. Le but de ces acquisitions était pour créer un magasin général situé dans les années 1890-s dans son sous-sol à Ottawa. Dernièrement le donateur a aussi amélioré la collection avec des objets qu'il a achetés qui appartenaient de la région des Cantons de L'Est.
Function
This rug beater is designed to remove dust from a carpet by manually beating it. Ce bat-tapis est utilisé pour déloger la poussière d’un tapis en le battant manuellement.
Technical
This object quite possibly made in Canada by a local artisan. These types of carpet beaters were used in most households across the country to clean rugs before the invention of central vacuum cleaner. This beater could also be used to clean pillows in a similar fashion. Cet objet est fait de fabrication artisanale, fort probablement fabriqué au Canada. Ce genre de fouet à tapis était utilisé dans la plupart des foyers canadiens qui avaient des tapis afin de les nettoyer, ceci, avant l'invention de l'aspirateur et sa diffusion. Les oreillers aussi pouvaient être battus avec cet appareil.

Finish
This rug beater has a wooden handle that is painted black. Four metal rods extend from the handle and are wound around each other before branching away from the handle to form two heart shapes. Ce bat-tapis a une manche en bois qui est peinturé noir. Quatre tiges en métal ressortent de la manche et ils sont enrouleur un autour de l'autre. Les tiges prennent la forme de deux cœurs qui sont un à l'intérieur de l'autre.
