Description from the seller

Very beautiful and decorative pulley. This industrial pulley is probably from the port of Rotterdam. The pulley likely dates from the first quarter of the 20th century and is 28 cm high, 13 cm wide, 12 cm deep and weighs about 2.5 kg.

The pulley is still 100% original and looks as if it has been taken straight from an old harbor scene. In any interior, this harbor equipment is a very decorative item and a conversation piece, but it can also be used to hang kitchen utensils, or a coat rack, or a lamp.

Beautiful about this pulley are the two wooden wheels (see photos). These wheels still run smoothly around the iron axle. The pulley is therefore still functional and all connecting materials, such as the center bolt, the screws and the thick rivets, are still original (see photos).

Very attractive is the grain of the wood, its shine, and the wear from use. The wood is a bit antique-brown. It is probably ash or oak, but that is hard to say with certainty. The wooden wheels and the wrought iron elements give this pulley a stylish and captivating appearance! The wood and the weathered metal are conserved and have a beautiful shine. The pulley is still very sturdy and stable.

This pulley is a very beautiful decorative item, but it can also have a lamp hung on it, or another object. It could even still be used as a pulley! This industrial heritage is certainly a conversation piece!

The pulley is professionally packed and insured for shipping.
