So this is the FIRST time we have had one of these in our care.  Griswold's FIRST line of holloware was the "Erie" brand, made from 1890 to approx 1905.  The skillets they made are the most collectible series we see, and from time to time we come across a Dutch Oven, Round Griddle or Long Griddle.  However this one....the flat bottom #6 is one that you don't come across often.   

This piece is a fantastic unique alternative to the dutch oven.  The flat bottom kettles were made in sizes 6 through 9 and they are amazing to use for soups and stews.  Very unique gift for someone that is a collector or someone special that loves to cook.  

IMPORTANT: It‘s in wonderful shape except in a previous life someone had left water in the basin for an extended period which caused some pitting. It has been fully restored and all rust is gone now. It‘s been seasoned as per usual so the rust will not continue unless its neglected again. 

- 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. Please use the photos as description. History of use means these pieces will have small marks and inconsistencies which we feel give them 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! - CastandClaraBell
