48 Inch Columbus Georgia (City Mills) Set Millstone

Description

A whopper from Columbus/Muscogee County, Georgia. From City Mills, circa 1869. A commercial mill founded on the banks of the Chattahoochee River that processed corn to make grits and deliver some “South in your Mouth” throughout the Chattahoochee Valley. The mill was converted to a condo development and we got twelve sets of millstones (24 total). All are 48″ diameters, some are as thick as two feet, all have five weight pockets carved into the rear of the stone so the miller could balance them (there’s even a photo of one intact in the gallery), and some have great grooves, great edges, some are ground completely smooth, some cracked, and priced accordingly.

A Beautiful stone! This particular stone is 48″ in diameter, 9″ thick with an 11″ square eye. Great grooves, great edges. No yoke. No steel on perimeter, White granite, Quarter Dress cut. More pictures available on request. Weight approximately 2000 lbs.
