Alfred Andreson was a local "jobber" businessman in the greater Minneapolis area. He partnered with The Griswold Foundry Co. L, out of Erie, PA, to help produce a range of cast iron holloware. The waffle irons Griswold helped Andresen to make have a beautiful design that makes gorgeous waffles! This piece was claimed from a home in Chester Co. PA and was in pretty good shape for its age. The heart shape waffle paddles are reminiscent of the "Hearts and Star" premier Griswold piece. We LOVE ours and are sure you‘ll love having this piece in your kitchen or as a collectors piece!
IMPORTANT: In order to use this style iron, you need a very open area to flip them, such as on a campfire or elevated over a gas grill. They were made a long time ago when stove eyes were the option most available. So while its an amazing show piece, its important to know how its used in a non traditional sense.

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.

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
