Antique 30’s Stubai Mountaineering Carabiner & Pitons

Vintage 30’s Stubai mountaineering carabiner & pitons

These pitons and carabiner were made in the 1930’s by Albert Lutz in the Stubai area of Austria.
After being hammered into a crack or seam of a mountainside the pitons function as an anchor and secure the climber from falling.

This antique gear would be cool decor pieces to your cabin, lodge or in your mountaineering collection!

After almost a century the gear remains in worn condition. Due to years of use they acquired a nice oxidized patina that only adds charm to their rugged character!
They have been treated with antique wax to give the surface a protective layer and a subtle glossy finish.

Lengths pitons: 19 / 16 /14 cm
