lemon squeezer
A lemon squeezer is a small kitchen utensil designed to extract juice from lemons or other citrus fruits such as oranges, grapefruit, or lime. It is designed to separate and crush the pulp of the fruit in a way that is easy to operate. Lemon squeezers can be made from any solid, acid-resistant material, such as plastic, glass, metal (usually aluminium) or ceramic.
==History==
The oldest known lemon squeezers were found in Kütahya, Turkey and date to the first quarter of the 18th century.〔John Carswell: "The Lemon-Squeezer; an Unique Form of Turkish Pottery" in ''IVème congrès international d’art turc'', p. 29–45. Éditions de l’Université de Provence, Aix-en-Provence 1971, ISBN 2-85399-015-X〕 These ceramic presses are in the traditional style of Turkish pottery of the 18th century and have a superficial resemblance to today's press equipment with cones, though they are designed differently. These examples were individually made, and specially designed for making the then popular citrus drink ''sorbet''. Lemons are not native to northern Turkey, though during the 17th and 18th centuries they were imported in bulk to Constantinople.〔
At the end of the 19th century a large number of different models of lemon squeezers were patented in the United States. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office lists over 200 patents for lemon squeezers, the majority of which were registered between 1880 and 1910. The oldest of these patents was issued to Lewis P. Chichester on July 3, 1860 for a cast iron squeezer. The stated purpose of the invention was "to obtain a simple, economical and durable implement whereby lemons may be squeezed for domestic purposes with much less power and with far greater facility than by the ordinary squeezers in general use."〔(US Patent No. 28967 ) at Google Patents〕
