African grain stompers "Steel"

"African Grain Stompers" are created by hollowing out tree trunks and large branches and then using them to grind grains. But they are not only intended as useful tools, but also as true works of art. But their function goes far beyond that, with the addition of table tops they have found a new purpose as side tables.

This particular grain masher has a sturdy steel plate as a table top, giving it a modern and industrial touch. Although there are some light scratches on the metal plate, they only add to the character and history of this unique piece. It's amazing how something that was once used to grind grain can be transformed into such an elegant and versatile addition to any home.

The years have given them a beautiful patina, often decorated with metalwork and repair work from the time of their original use in the field. Each grain masher tells its own story and is a valuable work of art that is both aesthetic and functional. Recycling and reusing these unique items preserves and passes on their history.

Whether as a decorative exhibition object or as a sculpture in the modern home, the possible uses are limitless and unique. Use your imagination and let your creativity run wild!
