This is  european style cooking pot which is a hybrid style.  It most accurately would be a kettle based on shape, but it has characteristics of a dutch oven, or bowl, so calling it a casserole might be the most accurate description.  It is designed for a wood stove (with a ring up the side of the bowl to that it could sit in a stove eye) but would be great on a stove or in an oven too.  Clearly a piece made for export due to the spelling of liter,  it probably came from somewhere in Europe other than the UK (as the British did not adopt the metric system until 1965).  The most likely places are Scandinavia, France, or Portugal.  Based on similar pieces I’m leaning hard to it being Swedish.

Beautifully polished interior, well cast with a pattern that looks like intertwined J’s underneath a crown.  Bowl shaped, but with very short legs that were designed to stabilize it is it could stand on a flat surface.  both body and lid are also gate marked.  This is a beautiful piece which will be a great display, server, and user.

Markings on the lid include a crown underneath which there almost seems to be two, J’s inverted to each other and interlocking, then “3 LS”
The body is marked: “3 4 Liter H”

9” 1/4 diameter (24 cm), about 5” without lid.

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 remarkably smooth.

This is not an old piece, but one made to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Lewis & Clark Corp of Discover expeditions.  Produced for a very short time these pieces are highly collectable, but more importantly are amazingly versatile as they not only offered the camp oven but a legged lid that could be used as a stand, coal holder lid, or as a griddle.  This is a big deep camp oven (3” 3/4 deep).  Three legs on both lid and bottom allow for use with coals or for open fire cooking.

Marked: “DO10” on the bottom.  Lid is marked: “Camp Chef Lewis & Clark Corps of Discovery 1803-2003 1806-2006.  And has a picture of what appears to be Sacajawea and her child on it.

11” 1/2 diameter, 3” 3/4 deep interior.  Lid cooking interior size 10” 1/2 diameter.

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

No cracks, chips.  Small wobble when tested on a sheet of glass.   Cooking surface is one of the best I’ve seen.  Should only get better

Item 1137

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

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.

Unmarked.

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.

Item 1133

Unrestored.  This one was lightly cleaned so as not to damage original seasoning and a new layer of seasoning was added for additional protection.

This is a old spider skillet with the round bottom a type that was popular until just after the Civil war.   Bottom gate marked, sits on three stubby legs.  Small hanging hole.   This one is a little deeper than the ones you usually see.  Condition of the interior is remarkable – smooth as glass with only some casting voids as flaws.

Marked #10

11’ diameter.

cleaned so as not to damage original seasoning and a new layer of seasoning was added for additional protection.

No cracks, may be some minor edge chipping on the handle but i think it is casting flaw.  Sits on it’s legs.  Cooking surface is just stunningly smooth with only a few casting voids marring the perfection.

Perfect for display but in good enough shape to be used.  This one would be perfect for a Civil War re-enactor  This is a spider style skillet/ Fry pan made between 1850-1865 for hearth and fire cooking.  This is as a great display piece as it has a uniform pitting, but it’s gentle enough that it could be used.   8” diameter at the lip and just over 2” 1/2 deep.  Stands on three short D shaped legs ~ 2” tall.  Stands just under 5” tall.  7” 5/8 long handle with elongated oval for hanging.  Handle is mostly solid, but the beginning of the hollowed handle style can be seen in the last 1” or so of the top of the handle.

Hard to read markings but the number 8 is obvious and the two letters after are probably “IN”

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

No cracks, chips.  Stands on it’s three legs.  Surface has a uniform pitting but is still quite usable and would improve with use.

Amazing collector piece.  This is a spider style round bottomed skillet made between 1700-1800 for hearth and fire cooking.  This is as nice as you are likely to find.  8” 1/8 diameter.  Stands on three longer D shaped legs ~ 1” 1/2.  Flat bar handle with lines for texture as cast (rat tail style).  ~6” long handle.  Appears to have been painted but it is possible that is is old seasoning.  There are some casting flaws and larger pits on the side walls but this is a real WOW!  piece.

No markings

No cracks, chips.   A real collector piece.
