Pair of 18th Century English brass sconces, probably made in the English countryside in the form of an elegant
and formal City style.
18th Century Pennsylvania, hand wrought wafer iron having a hex design pattern and a unique locking piece set
into and through its handle.
18th or early 19th Century reflecting oven, also called 'tin kitchen', having its original skewer device. Still completely ready to use on the hearth for open hearth cooking.
19th Century brass reticulated hanging bracket, English or American. Here is the perfect object to hang your lantern from the wall in any room. SOLD
18th Century rush and candle holder, English or American, made of forged iron with twisted shaft and having its original wood base in old black paint. SOLD
18th Century cast iron kettle with kettle tilter, European or American, the kettle having a single gate on the bottom. The graphic form of these two parts is most striking; the shape of the handle against the curve of the tilter handle would look spectacular in our near any open fireplace. SOLD
18th or early 19th Century wrought iron toaster, probably American having twisted iron half round forms which hold the bread in place. You'll never have to replace this one, the way you do with your electric toaster!!
18th Century American, standing candle and rush light holder, probably made by a blacksmith's apprentice or an amateur home blacksmith, given its unique decorative arm and candle cup construction, making it most charming and very pleasing to the eye. A one of a kind addition to a primitive home's lighting collection.
Late 17th - early 18th Century European taper or wax jack of wrought iron with decorative chasing and whitesmithing, heart shaped jaw or scissor top and scalloped form base, height: 6 1/2". At that period, before envelopes existed, hand written letters were sealed with a pool of wax, which was then impressed with one's personal seal. The wax jack, which sat on a desk, facilitated the melting of the wax. SOLD
