Coffee grinder - Porcelain

Vintage Wall-Mounted Coffee Grinder – Dutch “Windmill” Décor – Ceramic, Wood and Cast Iron

Lot description

I’m offering this lovely manual wall-mounted coffee grinder in a retro style, an ideal piece to complete the décor of a rustic kitchen, a bistro-style space or a country home.
The upper container (hopper) is made of white glazed ceramic with a rounded shape, decorated with a traditional Dutch blue landscape featuring its iconic large windmill, inspired by Delft Blue.

Materials and features of the lot:

• Hopper: Glazed ceramic, topped with its removable black-stained wooden lid.
• Wall mount: Original varnished wooden board (in very good condition on the back, see photos) with its 4 original mounting holes.
• Mechanism: Manual mechanical grinder made of cast iron and steel, fitted with a patinated metal crank and a turned wooden handle.
• Receiver: Removable cup made of rigid transparent plastic (in very good condition, not cracked).

Condition:

The grinder is in lovely vintage condition, with the patina of age:
• The ceramic is clean, and the glaze and blue design are very well preserved.
• The back of the wooden mount is in good condition and shows its natural period patina.
• The metal crank has traces of oxidation and wear to the surface of the original gold plating, enhancing its authenticity and retro charm.
• The mechanism turns properly.
The many detailed photos (inside the hopper, cup removed, back of the wooden board) form an integral part of the description. Fast shipping, with highly secure and careful packaging to protect the ceramic.

Carefully packaged shipping with tracking number provided
