Description from the seller

Old manual coffee grinder, tabletop, with a cast-iron frame and a solid wood box. It features a circular side flywheel, a wooden-handled crank, an internal mechanism with visible bevel gears, and a metal upper cup for receiving the beans. The grind is adjusted by an upper screw.

The wooden base includes a front drawer for collecting ground coffee, fitted with a metal handle. The unit sits on moulded feet, providing stability and decorative character.

Materials
• Cast iron (body, handwheel and mechanism)
• Wood (box, drawer, and knob)

Approximate dimensions (as shown in the photos with a tape measure)
• Total height: ~30 cm
• Base width: ~13–14 cm
• Base depth: ~13–14 cm

Condition
• Solid and complete structure
• Original patina on the iron, with normal signs of surface oxidation.
• Wood showing wear consistent with its age (marks and small scratches)

Seller's Story

I am passionate about art, antiques, and decorative objects with historical and aesthetic value. I carefully select unique pieces for auction, prioritizing those that stand out for their originality, quality, and history. I have a special affinity for antique mirrors inspired by the work of Alphonse Mucha, acquired from private collections and antique shops in Portugal and France. I also place great importance on pieces made of carved wood, especially in gilded relief, which represent the refinement and craftsmanship of classical decorative arts.
