Calling all sourdough fanatics! This Griswold 2 Cup Vienna Bread Pan is a tough one to find! 1920's Era, Raised Letter, Gorgeous!
Griswold made just a few versions of the two cup Vienna Bread Pan, and this one is one of the more common.Β However not many were made so it's one you need to snag while its here!Β Lodge made a lot more of this style and Wagner made one that is very tough to find.Β Overall they are awesome to have and display. We use ours to make fresh breads that are mini loaf size. PERFECT for garlic bread with some pasta or a dipping bread with a braised stew. Sourdough will be BANGIN' made in this style.Β Almost mint condition. Awesome pan!Β Β
