Thanks to Luca from Sassuolo who has
sent us the picture of this beautiful and extremely old tile cutter, probably
made in France, a piece for a museum I'd say! As we see it is very small
because many years ago tiles were much smaller than today, all the same and not
very expensive.
Tile installers can also see that the incision
wheels that make the incision on the tile surface are very large and the gap
lever is short because still hard porcelain still didn’t exist and ceramics was
very soft. Nice snap cutter anyway, very different from those we find today, which
make much more use of technology and are can cut through very hard gres porcelain.
