AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Very beautiful, large, and decorative pulley. This industrial pulley is likely from the port of Rotterdam. The pulley probably dates from the first half of the 20th century and measures (with hooks and eyes) 37cm high, 13cm wide, 12cm deep, and weighs approximately 4.5kg. Without the loose eye, the height is over 30cm.
The pulley is still 100% original and looks as if it was taken from an old harbor scene. In any interior, this harbor tool is a very decorative item and conversation piece, but it can also be used to hang kitchen utensils, or as a coat rack, or a lamp.
The pulley has a very beautiful wood grain. The wood is very well preserved because it has been regularly treated with wax. The pulley has two iron rollers that still rotate smoothly on their axles. You could still use the tool normally. Although the pulley is almost 100 years old, you could still lift heavy loads with it. It is still 100% functional (the rollers run smoothly and are still in perfect condition!) and all connecting materials, such as the central bolt and the rivets, are still original (see photos).
This pulley is a very beautiful decorative object, but it can also be used to hang a lamp or another item. It could even still be used as a pulley! This industrial heritage piece is definitely a conversation starter!
The pulley is expertly packed and shipped insured.
