Okay, so this one is a new one for us. We‘ve been looking for a "pig head" mold for some time and one came our way. This is such a cool and bizarre idea for a mold that we couldn‘t resist. The pig molds are heavy and will make an amazing display piece for your kitchen! They are unmarked and do not carry a brand name, but they are very popular among collectors. Used to make traditional "head cheese" if you are so inclined... but they could also make for a very interesting cake? We haven‘t tried it but if you do, send us pics!!
Pigs are popular item from vintage castings, seeing them in molds, in coin banks, and door stops, and they are derived from the concept of "pig iron" being used in the production of fine American cast iron. Very cool idea for a gift!
DISCLAIMER: We have prepared this piece to be ready to use or displayed in a collection. All pieces are vintage, and therefore are not in perfect condition. 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. Please review all pictures and ask for further clarification if needed. Thank you! - Cast & Clara Bell

Let customers speak for us
from 392 reviewsI ordered the egg skillet spatula as a gift for a friend, and let me tell you -absolutely perfect! The customer service is fantastic, and I received a handwritten 'thank you' card with my order. I'm incredibly happy with the quality, and will certainly order from this company again!
Nice piece for my collection.
Quality is excellent, packing was A++
What great service! The item was shipped in a timely manner and very well wrapped/protected (which almost never happens). I can’t wait to try it out.
This griddle is awesome!! It arrived as described and was super well packaged for shipping. I am very pleased with my new addition. A++++
This is a fantastic piece for my collection. I am so pleased with it. It was shipped and packaged with so much care. It was delivered exactly as described. They also have great communication. I emailed in a question about my order and received a reply quickly. A+++++
My grandfather recently passed and I was given three of his Griswold skillets. I fell in love and had to have more sizes in this collection. This is an amazing pan and has been cleaned/restored and is functioning very nicely. I love it. Great seller and very truthful about the condition of the pan. If you’re considering a purchase here, read and trust the description. I couldn’t be happier. Thank you! -David
Extremely satisfied.
Great skillet. Nice shape and I love the history of the foundry. lighter than my #6 Field. Pleasure doing buisness.
So excited to receive the Griswold Deep Fat Fryer! It was packaged great and arrived quickly. It was seasoned to start using today. I will shop with Cast and Clara Bell in the future. 100%
It’s pretty much exactly what I expected.
Not perfectly cut, but a repurposed old number seven Griswold pan turned into a perfect utensil for me to use on my grill.
Awesome, unique, and great for the grill!
I love the flop griddle. I been looking for one a long time. I intend to use it this winter when I start cooking on my wood burning cook stove.
This pan is fabulous. From the first egg, no sticking at all (as long as you don’t overheat the skillet first!) Near mint condition and beautifully restored. If you are looking for the perfect fried egg, you’ve found your vessel.This is my second griswold from these folks, and I will keep coming back as they do a really terrific job.
Wonderful piece. In great shape and ready to cook in
