About the Item

A most impressive pair of 19th century industrial French Provincial vineyard wine-press screw elements, refinished and fashioned as monumental pedestals / decorative arts stand / folk art sculptures. France; circa 1860s/1870s Over 150 years ago at a vineyard in the rural French countryside, these massive hand-crafted screw elements were a crucial component of a mechanical wine-press machine, extracting juice from crushed grapes during the wine making process. Salvaged and repurposed, featuring intricate foliate and grape motif relief carvings to the original heavy-duty solid wood base, finished in a rich warm dark brown stain, fitted with later round dished platform top. These rare, one-of-a-kind folk art works make for a fascinating architectural and sculptural statement piece! Highly decorative and functional, they're also the perfect gift idea for any avid wine lover or vintage bottle collector, serious accessory enthusiast, vintner, wine cellar, fine restaurant, wine bar, authentic winery or tasting room!
