A questioner said:
Tiny drawer in my grandma’s 100 year old house! What was it used for?
Some of the asnwers:
I’d imagine it’s for spices
any chance it is just a pull out base for a chopping board that would be stored elsewhere, and which had a board along the bottom which would drop into the slot?
A 100 year old house doesn’t have room for a dishwasher. These have been cleverly modified to look original to accommodate the installation without ruining the classic look. Those are solid wood built, you can sand and refinish a hundred more times and they will still be worth the effort.
Could it be for hanging pasta?
