I recently aquired this magnificent anvil. And wanted to show it to fellow enthousiast. 

It has been used at Helsingor shipyard, Denmark. The condition is very Nice, only issues are minor pitting in the face and a little kiss from a torch at the heel. 

Maybe somebody Can help me age this anvil? Also interrested in more info about the manufacturer

The stand is not for this anvil! 

Greetings from Denmark

Attwwod's owned Lodge Forge in Stourbridge which is likely where this anvil was made, it closed in 1926. They also owned a couple of slitting mills etc in the same vacinity. There is a wealth of info on the web once you know what to search for, so hope that helps you make a start.

If you take a surf oer to to Anvli Fire, you'll find pictures of it's twin that if I recall correctly resides in Australia.....
