Antique 19th Century Mountaineering Crampon

Antique 19th century mountaineering crampon

This early glacier cleat was once part of a pair and was used by mountaineers so the spikes would prevent them from slipping as they wore them underneath their shoes.
It was hand forged in the 1800’s in the Alps.

This antique crampon would make unique decor pieces to hang on the wall of your cabin or lodge!

After more than a century the crampon still remains in good condition.
Is has been treated with antique wax to give the surface a protective layer and a subtle glossy finish.
