Antique Wood & Cast Iron Manual Coffee Spice Mill Grinder Repaired & Refinished

  • $ 97.77


Description: A very nice-looking antique coffee or spice mill or grinder. The mill has a wooden constructed bottom and a cast iron hopper with a cast iron crank and grinding mechanism. The crank has a wooden knob at the end for comfort while grinding. The wooden base is of dove tail construction with the bottom and top being nailed to it. It has a drawer of nail construction and is equipped with a wooden knob held to the front with a screw. The mill has obviously been repaired as evidenced by some new nails and wood filling in a small spot on the base and has been stripped and refinished. The piece works well and appears to be all original with the exception of the repairs and the refinishing. Be that as it may, the piece looks great and would display nicely as a decorative accent in your kitchen or in your collection.
