Hunter Cast Iron 52 " USA Made Ceiling Fan - 5 Blade Only, 23856, RARE
Item History & Price
Hunter Original Cast Iron 52" Ceiling Fan - 2 Amp, 5 Blade Only - MODEL# 23856 - Vintage USA Made - White - RARE
Up for sale is a beautiful, excellent condition 1993 Hunter Original 52" 5-blade only ceiling fan. This beautiful cast iron ceiling fan was proudly made in the USA. This is one of the rare 5-blade ONLY models of the late '80s early '90s. To make it even more rare, this is a 2.0 amp 5-blade only model 23856.
These vintage Originals are highly sought after ...due to their powerful motor, 4" shaft, oil bath lubrication, and real-wood blades. While Hunter still sells an Original brand new, they ceased producing them in the United States in 2002. The newer, Chinese made Originals are not nearly as powerful or durable. Their design changed very little from their introduction in 1903 all the way up until they were outsourced in 2002. These solid, extremely heavy fans are built to last a lifetime. Heck, I have one made in 1937 still going strong as ever in my garage.
This ceiling fan is in excellent condition. The motor finish is in great condition. There are a few small blemishes in the finish, which is to be expected of a 27 year-old fan. The housing and blade irons are free of any major dings. The solid wood blades are free of any serious scratches. The fan has been painstakingly cleaned inside and out. See listing for the complete restoration process on this fan. Photos are of the actual ceiling fan you will receive.
If you're looking for a reliable, timeless ceiling fan that will provide year-round comfort for whatever room of the house you need - THIS IS THE FAN FOR YOU!!
