antique 19th century wood bending tool

This late 19th-century wood bending tool features substantial timber construction bound with hand-forged iron straps and a foot-operated tension mechanism. The upright frame and iron armature form a commanding architectural profile, where structure and proportion feel deliberate and grounded. The time-darkened wood and naturally oxidized iron bring depth and richness, giving the piece strong early American and primitive presence. An object of clarity and strength from the American workshop tradition.

CONDITION

In good condition with a nice patina to the wood and metal.
