AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Antique Blacksmith Anvil 10kg – Model "London Pattern" in Forged Steel
Description
For sale, a splendid antique anvil weighing 10 kg, characterized by the classic English design (London Pattern). Despite its compact dimensions, it is a piece of great substance, ideal for small forging jobs, knifemaking, jewelry making, or as a refined industrial decorative element.
Technical Features:
Weight: 10 kg (ideal for a workbench or small spaces).
Material: High-quality forged steel (not cheap cast iron), ensuring excellent hammer rebound.
Design: Equipped with a conical horn for curves and a top face for flattening.
Service Holes: Features both the square hole (Hardy hole) for tool insertion and the circular hole (Pritchel hole) for punching.
Condition: Excellent vintage condition. The face shows a light patina of age that certifies its authenticity, without deep gouges that would impair use. Edges still well defined.
Why buy it:
Unlike modern cast-iron anvils that chip easily, this is a "tool of a bygone era" built to last generations. Perfect for those seeking an authentic, functional piece with a story to tell.
