An absolutely incredible industrial artifact, this large vintage gear mold was originally used in a Portland cement factory to cast massive metal gears for rock crushing. Crafted from solid wood and finished in a bold, timeworn black, red, and gold color palette, the piece now boasts a rich patina that only decades of use and age can produce.

The design is deeply sculptural, with bold form and powerful presence-perfect as a statement wall piece, a floor sculpture, or repurposed as a cocktail table with a custom glass top (inquire for pricing). It looks equally stunning leaned against a wall, mounted (with proper supports), or displayed flat on the floor as a graphic, textural focal point.

A true conversation piece with industrial history and artistic character. Estimated weight is ~100 lbs-not overly heavy and manageable with two people.
