Rattopennugo
Vintage, antique and curious things from all over the world.
Coffee grinder - London - Queen Victoria Period - 1800s - Painted wood, tin and iron.
British humor should be declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site!
Rattopennugo loves ancient curiosities and is proud to present to you this coffee grinder found in an old fire station: needless to say, it depicts a fire hydrant!
In painted tin on a lacquered wooden base in the same cream colour, removable lid to allow attachment to the crank.
Compartment on the bottom to collect ground coffee.
London, Queen Victoria Period, 19th Century.
Wear, loss of color and patina, but (hear, hear!) working grinder!
When we no longer have fun with such antiquities, we will retire...
