Old, Adjustable, Iron Powder Measure - CLA 2022 (W/Correction)
« on: August 21, 2022, 11:11:13 PM »
 Anyone see one of these before.  Notice the fine decorative "rope" edge.  About the same size as modern measures.  Happy to give it a good home. 

God Bless,   Marc

Looks like a prototype for David Crisalli production.....    ;-)

Looks exactly like one of Karl Kuehn's measures.

Hi Art,

I am not familiar with Karl Kuehn.  Can you point me to his work? 

Many thanks, and God Bless,   Marc

Hi Folks,  As an update I am thinking that Art is right, this is an aged Karl Kuehn measure.  Not an antique, if anyone runs across another one.  God Bless,   Marc

That is definitely a Kuehn measure that someone cloroxed.  Looks cool with 'age' on it though!

Pretty nice work for what some would consider a mundane object. Functional art.

I bought a new one off Jason Gatlif (sp) at this year's CLA. He had three of them on his table. I have one in brass as well. Excellent little measures. They are made in two sizes.
