About this product
This antique wooden dumbbell dates from the late 19th to early 20th century (1900-1940). It is a single weight weighing 1.26 lbs. The maker is unknown, and the dumbbell is an original piece in brown wood. Ideal for collectors of vintage fitness equipment.
Our take
As an antique, this dumbbell has real historical charm. The wood is aged but well-preserved, and the 1.26 lb weight is clearly marked. It's a single dumbbell, so you can't do balanced exercises without a matching pair. The unknown maker adds a bit of mystery, but it's not practical for modern workouts. Priced at $35, it's reasonable for a collectible. If you're a history buff, it's a nice piece.
