Tobacco lath consists of thin, narrow sticks of straight-grained wood traditionally fitted with a metal tip. Farmers used the sticks to spear tobacco leaves and hang them from barn rafters to dry.
Made from material salvaged across southwestern Wisconsin, the wood’s surface patina developed naturally over decades of use.
