GORGEOUS Wagner's National #9 Skillet with Heat Ring, 9. One of our favorite pans to use in the kitchen! Restored and Ready to Use!
One of our FAVORITE skillets to work with, this one will be favorite of yours as well! Sleek handles and light weight make it a fantastic daily user, AND the quality and craftsman ship will be a great conversation starter hanging up for display. Highly recommended for collectors and home chefs alike.
IMPORTANT: It sits flat and has no cracks or issues beyond three small pits where the wall meets the inside surface that reflect its age. Restored using our electrolysis process and seasoned three times with our oil blend. We REALLY will hate to see this one go, but will be excited it go to a good home for the next hundred years.
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
