Early Antique #9/ 11" Bottom Gated Cast Iron Shallow Skillet /Griddle, restored

Description: Old cast iron round griddle / shallow skillet. About 11" across. There are no cracks, breaks, etc. A few casting flaws typical of this vintage, obvious sulfur rash on the back typical of the vintage, could be scratches, dark spots where oil pooled during seasoning, etc. It has not been used since the restoration process... Photos were taken outdoors in natural light and are a big part of the description. Sits flat. Cleaned/seasoned/ready to cook. Keep in mind that these type of unknown pieces generally came from smaller foundries with less refined casting and finishing processes.... has some "character". I personally really like these sort of pieces, but they aren't for everyone. Please study the pictures, use the zoom and see if it will work for you. I've restored hundreds of pieces of cast iron cookware. All go through lye to remove any crud, organic material, seasoning, etc. Then I run them through the electrolysis process to remove any corrosion, rust, impurities, etc. They are scrubbed by hand using dish liquid, stainless steel scouring pads, stainless steel brushes, and magic erasers under cold water to bring them back to the bare metal finish. Finally, all pieces are run through three rounds of seasoning using vegetable shortening. Cast iron cookware will last hundreds of years and generations if properly taken care of. These are beautiful, heirloom quality pieces made right here in the USA. Cookware will be shipped as soon as possible. Will be bubble wrapped and surrounded by packing material to ensure that they don't shift in transit. They are not making cookware like this anymore, and I would consider it tragic if anything were to happen to these in transit. If you are close then local pickup can be arranged. Just contact me before to make sure we can make arrangements that work for both of us and I'll add the option to the listing. If you have any questions, need additional pictures, or anything else please message me. Thank you for viewing this listing.
