Awesome fryer! Griswold (Wagner made) #8 deep chicken fryer with hinge for lid. Restored and ready to use!

This #8 deep skillet (also referred to as a chicken fryer) was manufactured by Wagner under the Griswold name in the mid 19th Century. Wagner and Griswold produced some of the finest cast iron in America for many, many years, and when Griswold was purchased by Wagner, that trend continued. This is a fantastic economical skillet that is a fine user for your kitchen. Being a deep skillet, its great for frying, and making sides and stews. It has a spot for a hinged lid which is not sold with this item. It has been restored and seasoned three times with our traditional oil blend. It does not sit flat so it is best for gas or electric coil ranges and not glass or induction.

We have prepared this piece to be ready to use, or to be displayed in a collection. All pieces are vintage and therefore are not in perfect condition. Please use pictures as description. Their history of use means small marks and inconsistencies, which we feel give them a special charm. All items are sold as is, and we have done our best to present them as such, so please review all pictures or ask for further clarification. Thank you! - CastandClaraBell
