Antique MJF Patentado Coffee Mill Grinder Early 1900s Cast Iron RARE Piece Spain

Very scarce and iconic MJF Patentado Coffee Mill/Grinder. This piece is made of solid Cast Iron with a wood drawn to hold the beans! These were made in the early 1900s and are one of the most sought after early 1900s coffee grinders! Let me first note this piece does have a few issues, firstly the lid on top has a small chip out of it, the top is secure or a small rod or even paper clip could be added to keep it from being removed but it is a piece of damage to note.

Secondly the drawer appears to be heavily modified or repaired, long ago. It is made of very heavy solid cast iron and the handle and drawer are made of wood! It was probably repainted red. A great conversation piece or display piece for a coffee shop of coffee lover!

Or put in some effort and get It back ready to function and you have a piece of history that will last a lifetime of coffee grinding. These models were to be used for whole beans!

I have priced this very fairly due to a couple of condition issues I have noted! Please see all images and understand I cannot guarantee that it work though it does appear to and makes sure you assess the condition issues! The top can be secure but taking a small pin/ paper clip or piece of wire and bending It on each end the top will function as normal.

Usually these pieces are screwed to a board or counter top so they don't move around while grinding! SIZE- 9 1/2 INCHES TALL by 4 1/2 base / widest length w wheel handle about 6 1/2 inches. A truly wonder piece of coffee history!
