175 lb. Hornless Colonial Anvil
Hornless Colonial Anvil
From the Josh Greenwood Collection.
This simple little anvil is from the 17th or 18th century. This is a hornless without 5th foot.
The surprising thing about these little anvils is their weight.
While this is much smaller than the typical 100 pound anvil, it weighs almost twice as much.
This anvil lacks a pritchell hole (post 1830 feature).
