Genuine Antique Millstones and Sugar Cane Syrup Kettles provide unique historical enhancements to your home or business landscape. Our Millstones and cast iron Sugar Cane Syrup Kettles are genuine historical artifacts recovered from all over the United States, but mostly here from the South.

Millstones (also called grist mill stones), since they were part of the harvest, have always been a symbol of hospitality, and make a great conversation starter.

Syrup Kettles are relics of the South and available in four basic sizes, make fabulous fountain bases, planters, even fire pits.

Water Filtration Balls. Made of silica, a slurry of sandstone. Formed and fired. 3” calipers, 1 ½ lbs. each, became designer focused when Architectural Digest ran an article some 25 years ago about people ripping out their gas logs and replacing them with these to give their homes a cleaner, more designer look. Purely decorative and many over 100 years old.

Our Inventory is catalogued under “Shop”

We used to print a full catalog, but when one of our items sold, the catalog became obsolete. So now we’ve turned to the flexibility of the web. Now we house over 180 millstones, kettles, fountain displays, by category, by diameter, INDIVIDUALLY, on this site. You get pictures, provenance, dimensions, description, weights, price. Everything. Soup to nuts, we provide full service. We even palletize and ship direct to your location.

How to order

We’re old fashioned. You can call or text Henry Hine at 404-310-6490, or you can email me at henry@millstones.com. I like to have a two way conversation so we can confirm what you want, shipping, delivery, etc. .

We also market butcher block kitchen Islands (only big ones) at a different website, AntiqueButcherBlocks.com (make link live)
