For all those who love the workmanship and lure of cooking on an old Griswold pan, this rare sought after piece is hard to find, especially complete! This is one of the earliest waffle irons Griswold made! It is The American! It was made in the 1880’s. I found it in our old 1800’s Vermont farmhouse kitchen. Being a lover of all things cast iron, especially Griswold I immediately put this waffle iron to use on our wood cook stove. And I have to say it makes the most delicious waffles, maybe because it brings you back to a simpler way of life when cooking was meant to be made with love and without rush. This cast iron Griswold waffle iron is in very good vintage condition. There is some age related wear and some mild minor pitting. There are also 2 old braised repairs on the base. It’s underneath and is not visible and clearly they are strong as they have withstood the test of time. And also the hundreds of waffles I have made with it over an open fire! The griddle irons are 8 in in diameter and 1 in high with 5 in long wooden handles that are black. The low base is 10 in in diameter and 1.25 in high and a 4.5 inch long ornate cast iron handle. Please note, I do not over clean any of my cast iron or antiques. The only thing I have done to this waffle iron is seasoned it yearly with olive oil.
Aus meiner persönlichen Sammlung biete ich folgendes Stück an. Meissen – großer figürlicher Tafelaufsatz – “Vier Jahreszeiten” auf Sockel von Ernst August Leuteritz. Der Dirigent aus der “galanten Kapelle” ist NICHT Bestandteil des Angebots! Er dient lediglich dazu, die enorme Größe zu veranschaulichen! Hersteller: original Meissen / blaue Schwertermarke unterglasur. 10 x 26 x 26 cm. Alter / Herstellung: Knaufzeit – siehe Schwertermarke / Bilder. Zustand: diverse Bestossungen / Altrestaurationen – Brandriss auf der Sockelunterseite. Fazit: Ein außergewöhnlich großer, aufwendiger und beeindruckender Tafelaufsatz. Ein echter Blickfang, mit herrlichem Gesamteindruck und Farbenpracht in gutem Zustand. Bitte beachten Sie, dass es sich bei diesem Stück um einen sehr alten, gebrauchten, seltenen und beliebten Gegenstand handelt, der üblicherweise Gebrauchsspuren aufweist (wenn er nicht restauriert wurde). Wir vertreten als Sammler die Grundauffassung, dass insbesondere alte, sehr seltene und aufwendige Stücke unrestauriert sein sollten so wie sie in den Museen meist präsentiert werden! Und einen besonderen, sehr schönen Gesamteindruck hinterlassen sollten. Herstellungsbedingte Brandrisse sind insbesondere bei sehr großen Objekten eher die Regel statt der Ausnahme. Die Spannung (der großen Masse) entlädt sich beim Brennen im Riss und ist endgültig, er verändert sich nicht mehr (der Haarriss hingegen wandert in der Regel). Alternativ biete ich in Deutschland die PERSÖNLICHE LIEFERUNG nach Zahlung! An, weil das Stück aufgrund seiner fragilen Teile (Gesamtgewicht im Verhältnis zu den außen liegenden Teilen) für den Versand meines Erachtens nicht optimal ist! Teilen Sie mir hierzu einfach die Postleitzahl der Lieferadresse mit, um die Kosten (VOR dem Kauf) hierfür abzustimmen / keine Barzahlung bei Abholung. Der Versand, sofern ausdrücklich gewünscht, erfolgt unter großer Sorgfalt in einem stark überdimensionierten Karton, möglichst sicher verpackt via DHL unter Verwendung von Schaumstoff – Seidenpapier – Luftpolsterfolie – Styroporflocken / Chips auf zweischichtigen, der Sockeluntereite angepassten Styroporplatten zur möglichst sicheren Fixierung. Eine Rücknahme und Gewährleistung nach EU-Recht schließe ich aus, das Versandrisiko trägt der Käufer. Abholung in Hannover / Laatzen bevorzugt! / Bilder sind Bestandteil der Auktion. Dieser Tafelaufsatz ist für den internationalen Versand nicht geeignet.

RARE LATE 19TH-EARLY 20TH CENTURY ANTIQUE CHINESE HAND CARVED & HAND PAINTED WOODEN BATTLE HORSE with LONG SADDLE on RAISED PEDESTAL BASE. Late 19th to early 20th century Qing Dynasty hand carved & hand painted wood sculpture. 11 3/4″ Height x 3″ Depth x 9 1/2 Width. 100% untouched and undisturbed. Offered for your review and consideration is this simply wonderful, estate fresh and absolutely uncompromised late 19th to early 20th century Chinese antique polychrome, wood-carved standing horse figure on a raised pedestal base. The figure is completely hand carved and hand painted with charcoal black, deep reddish burnt sienna and gold enamel paint. The figure is from the imperial Qing Dynasty and showcases a Chinese war or battle horse, with front coiled satchel used to carry possibly ammunition, black powder or lead balls, if the rider was armed with a musket. The large leather saddle, possibly a ceremonial one, has long, highly decorative side protection plates and has a sculpted form, allowing the rider to sit snugly and free up his arms holding a bow and arrow or even possibly a musket. The entire horse figure stands on attention poised atop a four ringed raised, pedestal platform and is banded with fluctuating red and black stripes of color. The entire figure is painted by hand with the base plate remaining unpainted. It was carved from a single wood block. Fantastic original paint and original surfaces. There’s some minor to moderate paint loss in places on the horse figure and on the raised pedestal platform base. No attempt has been made to’in-paint’ or to remediate these episodes of paint loss. It remains, undusted, unrinsed and untouched. It’s the same as when it was taken from the Massachusetts estate from where it was first discovered. An extraordinary late 19th to early 20th century Chinese antique artifact, if only because it remains completely unbastardized and left alone. Beautiful Chinese folk art wood carving and quick, gestural, kinetic enamel paint decoration, make this particular Chinese polychrome carved wooden war horse figure, a truly lost gem. Good to Very Good overall antique condition. This item is in the category “Antiques\Asian Antiques\China\Figurines & Statues”. The seller is “modsanctuary” and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped worldwide.
