Looking for a BIG skillet?? Wagner #12 B Cast Iron Skillet with Heat Ring, 14 inch skillet
ABOUT THIS PIECE....
This big country skillet is perfect for anyone looking for a big skillet to make some big meals! Made by Wagner but unmarked to sell in retail stores (department stores) after the 1930‘s, this pan a few spotty blemishes, almost like "flea bites". The pan spins, so it wouldn‘t be a good fit for glass cook tops, but gas or electric coil is perfect! Not to say it wouldn‘t work well on a glass top, it just would not be ideal. This pan isn‘t light, due to its size, but it sure isn‘t as heavy as the newly manufactured stuff out there. We hope you enjoy this pan as much as we did restoring it!
