Antique Cast Iron Mounting Pulley with Rotating Hearts! coil built burn mark along bottom edge

burn mark along bottom edge and a little wear to bottom right corner

is stunning in its simplicity

these terrific hand-thrown red glazed small serving bowls are contemporary

but makes sense to me

It certainly puts me in that sort of an earth goddess-y mood

Antique Cast Iron Mounting Pulley with Rotating Hearts! coil built burn mark along bottom edgeI don't pay much attention to old pulleys, but I will always stop for a wheel of hearts that turns round and round! I believe this was probably use for a sliding, pocket type door, or perhaps as a pulley for a dumb waiter, early 20th century I would guess. It is in great shape to put to work again, though I love it just as an object, either to mount on the wall or set on a surface and give a turn or two occasionally for good luck in love! 8 1 4" x 4 5
