Lemon Squeezers

image of the object

Lemon squeezers, which come in two varieties, are used to extract the juice of lemons for use in recipes.

The style represented here is good for rapid work. The lemon is cut in half, placed into the cup shaped receptacle which has a long handle attached, and then the lemon is pressed between the two sides of the tool by squeezing the handles together.

The squeezing results in juice being expressed from the lemon. The juice then runs out through holes in the receptacle and is collected in a vessel such as a bowl.
