This is a horse-drawn harrow used for puddling rice paddies until the early Showa 30s (around the late 1950s). It has been stored in an agricultural warehouse for over 60 years. I washed off the dust and mud with a car wash brush. The rope is not completely rotted, so I left it on as a reference for when you replace it with new rope. Replacing it with hemp rope would make it look great. The material appears to be very hard wood, and although there are scratches, there is no deterioration such as rot. The iron of the harrow is also rusty, but it seems to be only on the surface. However, one of the harrow blades is bent sideways. The inscriptions are worn due to rubbing against the support columns on both sides that connect the handle and the base of the harrow, but on one side it says "Iwasaki style?" and on the other side "Patent No. 162?". Dimensions are approximately: the length of the harrow base is 99cm, the height from the tip of the harrow to the center of the handle is 69cm, and the length from the tips of the bars for attaching the towing rope to the rear end of the base is about 33cm. Note that the tenons of the handle and the support columns on both sides have had their wedges removed, so you will need to insert wedges to secure them. The Mercari "Tanoseru Bin" packing and shipping service is unavailable during September, but if service in this area recovers, shipping will be possible for 8,600 yen. If you contact me, I will revise the shipping method and price and relist the item.
