A remarkable three-piece industrial artifact, this solid wood mold was originally used to cast metal components for a Portland rock crushing machine-a true piece of American industrial history with bold sculptural appeal.

The mold features a striking worn black and yellow painted finish that has aged beautifully over time, revealing layers of use and authentic patina. The top piece is stenciled "Portland Rock Crusher," offering a glimpse into its working past. The base cone is the largest, making it a natural candidate for use as a dining or center table base-please inquire for a quote to convert this into a custom glass-topped table.

This three-piece form is modular, allowing for creative placement: stack all three for height and drama, use the bottom cone as a table base, and the two top pieces as sculptural accents elsewhere. It's functional industrial art-perfect for a loft, modern rustic interior, gallery, or commercial space.

Estimated total weight is approximately 100 lbs. Structurally sound and visually commanding.

Top two pieces: 20" W x 17" H each
