Large Cast Iron Book Press - Delivery Available

This book press is a striking example of 19th-century industrial craftsmanship—solid, utilitarian, and quietly elegant. Made of cast iron, it features a robust screw mechanism topped by a circular handle with four vertical handles welded on top to provide ample binding pressure. The flat black finish is simple, practical, and worn. The flat pressing plate and sturdy frame were designed to compress books or documents during the binding process, ensuring tight adhesion and a clean finish.
