Condition & Details

Note: The pictures picked up on an area of "etching" on the bottom surface. This area is not pitted, but is more of a rougher finish to the casting. We take our pics in a stark light contrast so nothing is hidden from the pictures. In this instance, it makes it look worse than it really is. Great piece!!

If you want a skillet that lives in rarified air, and has a story to tell, this would be one of them. Before Griswold had its trademark cross logo, they were known as Erie, and their holloware skillets are some of the earliest versions of the brand. Made in the late 1800β€˜s to the VERY early 1900β€˜s, they made their skillets by hand, one at a time. And the very first Erie skillets were marked by makers with flowers, shields, portraits, letters and numbers.. and even THIS nautical anchor. The anchor marked skillet is unique and hard to find, you do not want to miss this.Β  Sits flat and does not spin.

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
