Please note all our pieces unless marked otherwise are fully restored and seasoned.  Just wash them and start cooking.

Museum quality!  and when I say that there is no exaggeration, the only other one of these we know of is in the Buffalo Bill Cody museum.  Likely made by a blacksmith on the western plains, or west coast of the United States. This skillet certainly predates the Civil War and could date back to 1800.  It’s a very unique and special piece.  Has some attributes of both cast iron and wrought iron, but there are enough hammer marks on the bottom to makes us lean towards it not being a flask cast piece, but a wrought iron piece.  There appears to be a gate/grind mark near the neck of the handle.  Hook at the end of the handle was probably for hanging.

Unmarked.

15” 1/4 diameter.  handle is roughly 13” 1/4 long

Cleaned via lye method, hand buffed and seasoned with 3 layers of non-GMO canola oil.

No cracks, chips.  Meant for fire use, not meant to sit flat.  Light pitting, tool marks and other signs of age are present.  While you could use this piece it really is a historical piece that should be put on display.

Blacksmith made wrought iron straight skewer over 15” long with the number 19 marked in the side.  I suspect this was made for cooking meat, but I’m not 100% sure on that.   Has a large circular ring with a 2” 1/2 diameter for gripping on one end.  VERY sharp.
Only marking is the number 19 which appears to have been hammered into the iron using a die.  Because of that, and the fact it is blacksmith work it was probably made after 1850, but prior to 1870, when cheaper man made wire would have been available for use for items like this.

15” 1/4 long

Cleaned via lye method, hand buffed and seasoned with 3 layers of non-GMO canola oil.

No cracks or chips.

Nice older six cups baking pan (the cookies/cakes they made were known as gems – hence the name gem pan) for pastries in the fluted design known as the “Turks Head”.  Over 100 years, possibly even 150 years old.  Wing style handles and twin gate marks on the center cups that have been mostly smoothed.  Sits on the gates, so does not sit flat on a sheet of glass.

Unmarked

Cleaned via lye method, hand buffed and seasoned with 3 layers of non-GMO canola oil.

No chips, cracks.  Sits on it’s gate marks so there is wobble, but that was typical of the gated ones.  Cooking surface is typical of gems of that era.

Item 1531

Sold as found.

These are works of art.  Very finely cast with incredible detail.

You do find some wonderful non cast iron things when you go picking and this is one which honestly will make the most amazing spoon rest.  This one is in the design of a dog on point.  Can’t tell if it is a spaniel or pointer but the detail is excellent.

Marked: “JB 1628”

5” 7/8 x 4” 1/4

No cracks or chips.

If bang for the buck for a user skillet is what you are looking for BSR (Birmingham Stove & Range) is the way to go. Great user skillets with a lot of weight make these great for searing and blackening.  Nice quality for the price.

Beautiful Red Mountain skillet from BSR’s earliest line.  Outstanding glassy cooking surface which will only improve as tiny flea bite tool marks fill with seasoning. Sits flat.  Will be an amazing user.  Typical heat ring, and handle design.

8” 1/8 diameter (excluding handle)

Marked “5.A” on the bottom.

Cleaned via lye method, hand buffed and seasoned with 3 layers of non-GMO canola oil.

No cracks, chips or wobble when tested on a sheet of glass.  Cooking surface is glassy to the touch.  Will only get better.

Not perfect by any means, but it should be a good user for someone at a bargain price.  Made by Birmingham Stove and Range this is one of the deeper 12” camp ovens.   Stands on three legs.  Designed for cooking with coals or with fire.  Raised number on lid.  Piece was extensively restored and you can see a line on the interior wall where the seasoning has not taken quite evenly.  That should even out and improve with use.  Interior of the oven is slightly pebbled to the touch as typical of later BSR pieces with some minor scars where we removed rust.  Big flaw on this one is that the tab handled lid missing a good chip out of it (about 3” 1/2 long) at the rim.  You should be able to place coals around that spot.  Will only improve with use.

Marked: “12 In” in raised numbers/letters on lid, and “Made in USA 12” on the bottom of oven.

12” diameter, 5” interior depth, 1” 1/2 leg height.  Lid is 12” 3/4 wide at the lip.

Cleaned via lye method, hand buffed and seasoned with 3 layers of non-GMO canola oil.

No cracks, chips or wobble.   Cooking surface is typical later unpolished BSR, with a pebbly to the touch cooking surface and some rougher spots where we removed rust.  Will improve with use.
