Antique Cast Sad Iron, Silvesters Patent Vintage Flat Iron
Antique Cast Sad Iron
Antique Salter brand pre-electric cast iron "sad iron" / flat iron, featuring the original stamped "Silvester's Patent" marking on the top face. Likely dating from the late Victorian period / late 19th century.
Great heavy piece, ideal as a vintage doorstop, rustic home decoration, bookend, or as a restoration project for a collector.
Condition: In un-restored vintage condition with substantial surface rust and oxidation as seen in the photos. The metal is completely solid, and the patent text stamp is clearly visible under the patina. Could be cleaned down to bare metal or left with its current rustic look.
