IMPORTANT: This skillet has been restored according to our normal process. When it was stripped down it revealed a discolored central area. High heat sources or wood stoves sometimes will cause either sulfur pitting or a reddish hue. This skillet is not pitted but it does have this curious orange hue to it in the center. Typically a sign of high heat is more of a scarlet red, and not this orange hue. However it sits perfectly flat and has an glass smooth cooking surface. A beautiful piece, but we feel we should always show the pieces as they are. See pics for more details.

Oh baby, this one is a special one! If you want a skillet that lives in rarified air, this would be one of them. Griswold made six different versions of the Erie skillets and series 3 was made in the 1890's. This series of skillets were made in sizes 6 through Early makers made their skillets by hand, and the very first Erie skillets were marked by makers with flowers, pineapples, and even a nautical anchor. Only three of the series' even made a #6. It also has an "A" makers mark. So unique and hard to find. You do not want to miss this.
