AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

These four manual coffee grinders, dating from the first half of the 20th century, represent a rich variety of styles and origins, reflecting both the evolution of domestic design and the artisanal functionality of the time:

1. Wooden mill with metal dome: With simple, warm lines, this piece combines a wooden base with a domed metal lid. The long, curved arm of the mechanism suggests an early design, possibly of Central European origin, intended for everyday domestic use.
2. Coffee Grinder with the inscription “CAFÉ”: This model features a light wood structure with a metal mechanism on top. The word “CAFÉ” embossed on the front identifies it as a functional and decorative object, probably mass-produced for the French or Spanish market. Its aesthetic places it in the interwar period.
3. “ELMA” Mill: With a square base and grooved metal body, this mill bears the “ELMA” brand, a renowned Spanish company specializing in kitchen utensils. Its robust and compact design is representative of the 1930s–1950s, with a clear focus on durability and domestic production.
4. “Peugeot Frères Valentigney Doubs” Mill: This piece, with a black base and brass upper container, belongs to the prestigious French firm Peugeot Frères. The inscription indicates its origin in Valentigney, Doubs, and establishes it as a high-quality piece, highly valued by collectors. Its elegant design and fine materials link it to the French industrial tradition of the early 20th century.

Each of these coffee grinders retains its original features and shows signs of use consistent with its age, giving them historical and collector value. They are ideal pieces for display, vintage decor, or as items of interest in the antiques market.

Certified shipping and good packaging.
