Bezemer \u0026amp; Zn N.V. - Helmond, Holland\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nWooden cigar mold (press) composed of two hinged blocks with matching carved cavities designed to shape cigars uniformly.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nCrafted by Perlu‑Vorm in Helmond-a noted Dutch manufacturer active in the first half of the 20th century-this mold served as an essential tool in traditional cigar-making. The two wooden halves align via pegs or fittings, compressing cigars into consistent form before final wrapping. The exterior bears the Perlu‑Vorm maker's stamp and model number, grounding it firmly in its heritage. Its robust construction and utilitarian design echo the craftsmanship and industrial aesthetic of European tobacciana.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe mold exhibits a warm patina from years of use, edge wear, and handling marks that underscore its history in a working environment. Hinges (or pegs) remain intact, and the engraved identifiers are still legible.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n22″ L × 4″ W × 2.5″ H\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMM - C-15668 - 082825\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor information regarding shipping, please visit our Terms \u0026amp; Conditions page \u003ca class=\"GeneratedLink\" href=\"https:\/\/industrialartifacts.net\/pages\/shipping\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Industrial Artifacts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42122104176683,"sku":"C-15668","price":350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0194\/8170\/files\/19dc08a7-8741-59a0-8765-064d38780c7a.jpg?v=1756504561","url":"https:\/\/industrialartifacts.net\/products\/vintage-wooden-perlu-vorm-cigar-press","provider":"Industrial Artifacts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
