This is a very old kettle made by a small foundry using flask cast method. Stylistically its very much an early American piece with a heavy bottom gate mark, New England style ears, heavy triangular legs and a square section hand wrought bail. Side has a stylized crown like mark (inside what I think is a pair of wings) beneath the letters B and R with what looks to be a stylized flask which looks to have been an artistic interpretation of an ampersand (&) between the letters. There is a casting void (a hole) which goes all the way though the wall of the kettle about 2/3 of the way down that right “wing”. It is less than a 1/16” wide. Interior is beautifully smoothed with obvious pouring flaws still visible. \Yes you could use this but I think this should be a display piece.
Marked “B & R” please note the “&” is my interpretation of what the artistic flask between the letters is.
7” 7/8 diameter, ~5” 1/2 tall
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 beautifully smoothed for such an old piece, but has casting flaws.

Museum quality display piece.
A real collector piece of old historical iron. Made between 1820-1850 this piece is at least 160 years old and could be as old as 220 years old. Designed for use over open fire this legged skillet was cast without a handle but had a pegged locked bail made by blacksmith so it could be hung for use, or stood on it’s legs. Cast using the flask casting method with a bottom gate. Has three full legs for stability for when set over a fire or on a table. Not surprising due to the age (and casting method) there are some casting flaws. Can certainly be used, but there is hairline crack so it might be best as a display piece of historical interest.
Unmarked.

This is a round rimmed kettle with a great shape, New England style ears, D shaped legs, and a a hand wrought bail. These features date the pot to between 1830-1860. It is bottom gated and a beauty to look at. This one was made so that it could be used on a wood stove, which you can tell as the rounded bottom actually extends to below the legs which were to meant to sit on the stove top. This piece is really more of a display piece than a user although it certainly can be used. Interior is heavily pitted.

10” 3/8 diameter, roughly 7’ 1/2 tall.
Stripped to bare iron using lye method, hand buffed and seasoned with 3 layers of non-GMO canola oil.
No cracks, chips. Designed to sit on legs in a wood stove. Interior is heavily pitted. It could be used, but this one is more of a display piece in my opinion.

Sexy (so sexy that Donald Trump might want to cop a feel) little kettle made between 1760-1800. Blacksmith made square sectioned bail (wrought iron), heavy D shaped legs and large gate mark on the bottom. Distinctive New England style ears. Decorative rim. Piece has some amazing casting flaws which add a lot of character (love those interior voids). Minor pitting to interior – but honestly amazing for a piece this age.
Unmarked.
9” 7/8 diameter, roughly 7” tall (to tip of ears)
Stripped to bare iron using lye method, hand buffed and seasoned with 3 layers of non-GMO canola oil.
No cracks, chips. Designed to sit on legs. Interior is has light pitting, but pot is very usable, which should not effect use. Great display piece.
