A lovely, Early Victorian Industrial Bale Hook. Nicely made of Hickory or Oak and steel with brass end caps. It fits beautifully in the hand and has clearly done lots and lots of work. There many knocks that it has collected on its long journey. But is free from damage repairs or woodworm.
Probably blacksmith made as I am unable to find a makers mark although there are what seem to be owners identificaton marks carved into the wood.
It shows a beautiful patina and will make a wonderful addition to any collection and is ready for display. A lovely item from my own collection.
Dimensions: 9 1/2 inches or 240 mm long, 5 1/2 inches or 137mm handle width
UK delivery is included in the price. Collection from Derby welcome.
