Antique Early GRISWOLD Cast Iron Waffle Iron Maker THE AMERICAN Low Base #8 RARE
Posted by admin On May 20, 2024
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.

Rare late Commonwealth Period silver Puritan spoon maker TA London c1655
Posted by admin On October 4, 2022
A fine late Commonwealth period silver Puritan spoon in the simple elegant style of the period. The Puritans did not approve of unnecessary ornamentation and this is reflected in the plain design and functionality of this rare survivor, which historically belongs between the earlier Seal Top and Apostle spoons, which had hexagonal stems, and the trefid spoons with their flat stems and oval bowls which came over with the Royal Court from France at the time of the Restoration. Owing to the short duration of their popularity and the scarcity of silver at this period in English history due to the demands of the war, Puritan spoons are very rare and sought after. The Spoon has the initials’RM’ engraved on the back of the stem, together with the London town mark, struck twice, and a maker’s mark TA above a mullet and two pellets, which is recorded on page 124 of Jackson’s’Silver and Gold Marks’. The date mark is worn away, and was in all probability poorly struck originally; you can see where it was on the upper stem, but only a small indent remains. There is a lovely crisp London Town mark in the bowl. This is a particularly pleasing and tactile spoon, smaller than some examples, in super collector’s condition, with no damage or repair and having a good colour. TA London 1655 – 1660. I have many stunning pieces of collector’s silver in my shop, please look at my other items. I aim only to list antique silver items that are without damage, repair, alteration or undue wear. My silver pieces are ideal as special gifts, for collectors, for investors, or for resale by dealers. I provide clear descriptions and photos.

This eye appealing flask is completely hand made in the very desirable small size pocket flask size; 3 ½ tall flask x 1 ½ in diameter and is intended as a pocket flask, typically kept inside a jacket pocket.

The cylindrical body has a flat plate silver soldered to the bottom of the base which has slightly rounded edges. The mushroom shaped sterling silver screw cap has a slightly domed top with a collar on the top and bottom of the neck.

The hallmark to the right is the duty mark with the profile of King George IV, used from 1822 to 1833. This flask was made in 1833, the last year this mark was used before the new Regency mark for King William began in 1834. The next mark is the Lion mark for. 925 Sterling, and the mark S is the London date mark for 1833. The 521 and BB scratched into the base represent an inventory # and the initials of the Artisan/Craftsman of the firm. This handsome pocket Whiskey campaign flask was hand crafted by Artisans in Old England, remains in excellent condition overall with a very light, natural aged patina, and demonstrates this piece has been put up and well taken care of in its 188 years of age.
