This is a gorgeous early antique coffee grinder with a gorgeous red tone finish. My mother kept this and she had an antique shop so when she kept things, they were special. This grinder is dated on the top edge of the drawer 1827. Over the years people have added nails when needed, some square and some round, some chips here and there to the wood, some areas where the wood is worn, each adding to its' personality.
I love the wings on the side which obviously were to help keep it stable for grinding. Grinder is there and still turns. Metal cup, cast handle and grinding mechanism. If you have any questions, please contact me.
