Offered is a primitive hand-carved wooden roller tool, most often identified as an early cotton gin seed separator or textile roller.
Construction:
Solid hand-carved wood with dual rollers, side gears, and a mortise-and-tenon frame. All original surfaces with visible tool marks and early peg joinery. Retains a completely untouched, dry surface showing age-appropriate wear, cracks, and patina.

Likely 18th–19th century, ethnographic or folk piece; origin uncertain (similar forms cataloged in Asia and Europe).
Dimensions:
Approx. 18" H × 15" W × 5" D
Condition:
Structurally sound and visually striking, with expected surface wear and age checks consistent with its early handmade construction. No modern restoration. Displays beautifully from all angles.
Use / Display:
Excellent as a decorative sculptural object, museum-style folk artifact, or conversation piece within rustic, industrial, or Wabi-Sabi interiors.
