Great 1″ Steel Sole Brass Shoulder Plane by G. Miller – Overstuffed Rosewood Infill

A superb example of late 19th-century British infill craftsmanship, this 1″ shoulder plane by George Miller features a brass body with a sweated-on steel sole, delivering both elegance and performance. The plane is fitted with a beautifully figured overstuffed rosewood infill, offering a full, rounded grip that’s as comfortable in hand as it is striking in appearance.

George Miller operated out of 24 Ampton Street, Gray’s Inn Road, London between 1890 and 1914, producing shoulder planes of exceptional quality and distinctive profile. His work is known for its clean gunmetal castings, tight mouths, and smooth, uncluttered forms—often rounded across the top for a sensual, ergonomic feel.

Planes by Miller are rarely marked, but their unmistakable design and build quality make them easily identifiable to seasoned collectors. This one is no exception—an outstanding piece of toolmaking history.
