Condition
Vintage pre-owned condition with age-related wear throughout, including scratches, marks, discoloration, finish wear, and wear to the red-painted wooden frame. There is a split in the ironing-board top toward the front/tapered end, as shown in the photos. One of the wooden support/bracing pieces on the upright backside also has a split; white string has been wrapped around this area to help hold and stabilize the brace. Please review all photos closely, particularly the split areas and folding/support structure, for the best representation of condition. Due to its age and the existing repairs/damage, it may be best suited for display, restoration, or decorative use rather than regular ironing without further attention.
A wonderfully distinctive old wooden ironing board with plenty of authentic age and character. The red wooden framework, exposed dowel construction, long tapered top, and timeworn finish give it an eye-catching primitive farmhouse look that would make an excellent décor, display, restoration, or repurposing piece.
