About this product
This is a pair of antique wood barbell weights or dumbbells, each weighing approximately 1 lb. Crafted from wood with a dark tone finish, these are unsigned, unbranded, and of unknown origin. Sized small at up to 14 inches, they are listed as original antiques in a naive, primitive style. Suitable for light weight lifting or as decorative vintage pieces.
Our take
As a collector, I appreciate the authentic primitive charm of these wooden dumbbells. Each weighs about 1 lb, making them very lightweight—more for display than serious exercise. The dark wood tone is appealing, but the lack of markings or brand leaves their history a mystery. They feel sturdy but are clearly not built for modern workouts. If you're after a conversation piece or a gentle prop, these work well. At $15 for a pair, they're an affordable vintage oddity. Just don't expect to build muscle with them.
