The object in the photo is a vintage hand-crank pencil sharpener. Here are a few notable characteristics:
	•	Front-facing crank handle: The two levers on the top are part of the crank mechanism.
	•	Circular blade housing: The circular metal plate in the center holds the rotating sharpening blades.
	•	Translucent shavings container: The turquoise-colored plastic part below collects pencil shavings.
	•	Metal body with base: Indicates a durable, likely desk-mounted or heavy model.

These types of sharpeners were common in schools and offices in the mid-20th century. The design suggests it could be from the 1950s to 1970s.
