Shoe tree shoemaker paperweight

This shoe tree will make an original paperweight on a desk, and on a shelf, a decorative object in its own right and certainly arousing curiosity! Perfect in a vintage decoration as in an industrial decoration. It is made of cast iron, very heavy. I just dusted it off and passed a little antique wax to revive its beautiful patina. It has spots and marks of its age, probably not far from a hundred years. It measures 26 cm in length, 7.5 cm in width and 20 cm in height. It weighs about 3.2 kg.
