The thing in the picture is actually an add-on for an old Sunbeam Mixmaster mixer.

To be exact, it’s a part of the juicer attachment.

The spout lets the juice pour out, and the wire part holds a small strainer to get rid of the pulp.

In this attachment, the special tools that were often used with old kitchen appliances are shown off.

In the middle of the 20th century, the Sunbeam Mixmaster was a popular kitchen appliance that was known for being flexible and having a lot of different attachments.

This spout was part of the juicer attachment, which let users quickly get juice from fruits while keeping the consistency smooth by filtering out the pulp.

Specialized tools like these show how creatively kitchen equipment has been designed in the past to meet all of your cooking needs.

Finding this in a drawer might confuse someone unfamiliar with vintage kitchen gadgets, but it is a harmless, practical tool from a bygone era of home cooking.
