N/A Antique 19th Century Wooden Hand Plane - J.&H.M Extra Qualität Iron - Number 8

My favorite piece in my collection! This antique wooden smoothing/jointer plane features a beautifully shaped rear tote and wedge, paired with an iron stamped EXTRA QUALITÄT – J.&H.M. The German/Austrian maker's mark suggests a 19th century import, fitted into a hand-made or small-shop body. * Maker: J.&H.M. (iron, German origin) * Stamp: Extra Qualität (extra quality) * Style: Wooden smoothing plane, approx. [insert measurement] * Features: Sculpted rear tote, wedge, iron and cap iron intact * Owner's marks: WL on body, 8 on heel * Condition: Antique patina and wear, stains, and scratches consistent with heavy use. Complete and solid overall. A striking piece with Old World character, perfect for collectors or rustic décor. Will be sad to see this one go.
