Arc Logo “Wagner” flat bottom kettle made between 1890-1920.  Close to if not over 100 years old.  Essentially this is a great stew pot like a deep dutch oven.  Cooking surface still has traces of mill marks but also has some flaws (pitting in a few spots), and tool marks.  Great piece.  Sits flat.

Markings:  “Wagner” Sidney O 8 (on the bottom)

Size: 10”  diameter, 6” 7/8 tall.

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

No cracks, chips, wobble or bow, when tested on a sheet of glass.  Cooking surface is very good but there are some pits.  Will improve with use.

Not the prettiest #3 skillet from the last years of Griswold’s existence but it should turn out to be a great user.  Doesn’t sit quite dead flat with good polishing (often called mill) marks still visible on the walls. Cooking surface shows use with flea bite tool marks and some minor scuffs – but nothing of concern.  Skillet should become smooth and glassy with use.  Will be a great user.

Marked: “3” on the top of the handle and “No. 3” Followed by the Griswold small logo then “Erie PA 709 L” on the bottom of the pan.

6” 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 roughened by fine flea bite tool marks and some scuffs but nothing that that shouldn’t fill in with use.  Should only improve.

Excellent #3 Griswold small logo skillet made between 1940-1957.  Well cast, clear markings.  Almost glassy to the touch cooking surface with some minor flea bite tool mark are almost imperceptible to touch.  Should only get better with use.  Just the tiniest hint of wobble (so little I might be imagining it) when tested on a sheet of glass – so little it should be good on any stove.

Marked: “3” on the top of the handle and “No. 3” Followed by the Griswold small logo then “Erie PA 709 B” on the bottom of the pan.

6” 1/2  diameter

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

No cracks, chips.  Hint of wobble when tested on a sheet of glass.  Cooking surface is glassy. Marred by some flea bite tool marks that should fill in easily with use.

Not the prettiest of Griswold skillets anymore, this one should still be a great user.  This was once a fully chrome plated piece, but much of the plating has worn away leaving it as a user level piece.  The outside is still good looking, but the interior looks uneven.  Mostly glassy cooking surface with a large casting flaw (looks like a crack in the photos – but does not go though to the other side so we know it’s not a crack) as well as patches of casting voids.  Bottom has a nice casting flaw.  Good for gas or coils.  Take it cheap.

Marked: “7” on the top of the handle and “Cast Iron Skillet 7” Followed by the Griswold large block logo then “Erie PA U.S.A 701 A” on the bottom of the pan.

9” 7/8 diameter

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

No cracks, chips.  Wobbles when tested on a sheet of glass.  Mostly glassy cooking surface with light flea bite tool marks and casting voids.  Should only get better with use.

We don’t sell a lot of asian iron on our sight, mainly because so much of it is lower quality than we like.  BUT occasionally we come across some very nice pieces that we think people will really like.  This short walled skillet which only stands 7/8 of an inch tall but is pretty much perfect called out to us.  Seemed just perfect for the making of a tart or shallow pastry.  Glassy cooking surface, sits flat.  Really a sweet piece.  $13 plus the shipping is what we pegged this at – but we’ll give a $7 rebate if you buy this one with a larger piece that includes the shipping.  Note.  there are some marks on the side of the pour spout on one side.  Looks like maybe they were trying to make some grooves in the wall?

Marked: Bottom is marked “6 1/2 inch skillet Taiwan 5” on it.  There is a raised symbol that looks like an H on the handle that may well tell the maker.

6” 1/2 diameter

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 with just light tool marks on the cooking surface and it should only improve with use.

No one knows which foundry really made these skillets, but they are widely believed to have been made in western NY or PA, as that seems to be the area where they are most commonly found.  They are heavy, and have a heavy (large dimple) hammered pattern in the iron compared to those made by Griswold, Wagner, Lodge or Chicago Hardware.  Certainly vintage going back until at least the 1950s and possibly as early as the 1910-1920 period.
Good piece typical of this foundry.  Heavy hammered pattern on the outer wall.  Very good which has some minor casting flaws and an almost glassy smooth cooking surface  (with a few scars) when you run fingers over it.  Should only improve as it’s used.  Tiny wobble means but so small it should be good on any range.

Marked: “3” on the top of the handle.  A single dimple on the underside of the handle is the only other marking.

6” 1/8 diameter

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

No cracks, chip.  Very small wobble when tested on a sheet of glass.  Cooking surface is almost glassy but will only get better with use.
