Coffee grinder - Wood - Coffee grinder

An imposing and decorative Italian table coffee grinder in nostalgic antique style, manufactured around 1970. The grinder is built from a stepped wooden body in dark wood with a copper oval brand plate on the front and a copper funnel-shaped grinding chamber on top with a hinged lid.

The body features four faux drawers with round wooden knobs — the two upper ones are decorative, while the two lower ones together form one functional drawer to collect the ground coffee. The cast-iron crank with a turned wooden handle and the detailed wooden column with moldings and decorative fittings give the grinder an authentic 19th-century character — while in reality it is a high-quality Italian production from the 1970s. A successful nostalgic nod to the classic French and Italian coffee grinders from the Belle Époque.

Condition: good vintage condition with signs of use appropriate to its age. Mechanism present and complete.
