Nutmeg grater

Nutmeg graters are normally metal, cylindrical or half-cylindrical, the surface perforated with small rasped holes.

The grater may be combined with a compartment for storing the nutmeg seed between uses.

[2] Through the 18th century, it was the fashion for men to carry nutmeg in a pocket-sized silver container equipped with a grater in order to add freshly grated nutmeg to punch.
