This impressive professional impact press represents a piece of industrial modernism of exceptional charm, originally used in the bookbinding and book restoration sector. The instrument embodies the solidity and precision of the mechanics applied to the graphic arts of the last century, preserving intact the charm of ancient typographic workshops. The structure, built by the FALC company, is entirely made of cast iron and metal, characterised by a thick central screw driven by a large circular handwheel that allows for uniform pressure to be applied to the volumes. The original industrial green paint and patina on the supporting columns testify to professional use, making it not only a still functional tool for restoration, but also an exclusive collector's item. This piece of industrial design is ideal to enhance a vintage bookshop or to give character to a professional studio, celebrating the art of artisanal manufacturing.
