Late 19th Century Collection of 5 Antique Cast Iron Irons - Marked and Ornamental A remarkable ensemble of five antique flat irons, dating from the late 19th century, each offering a unique glimpse into the craftsmanship and domestic practices of a bygone era. These robust objects are more than tools: they are sculptural pieces rich in patina and history, perfect for collectors or interior decorators seeking authenticity and charm. Each iron in this set showcases variations in design and size, with decorative elements and markings such as the initials "J.P.B" and embossed numbers or symbols, indicating either manufacturer codes or sizing. One of the irons also features an engraved arrow-shaped mark, further enriching the historical narrative. The materials used are solid cast iron with some wooden handles—one of which is visibly worn and partially broken, a testament to its age and use. Originating from Europe and crafted during the industrial period, these irons reflect the utilitarian yet aesthetic design sensibilities of the time. With their sturdy construction, they were built to last—and they have. Dimensions: Largest iron: 20.5 cm (8.07 in) high, 18 cm (7.08 in) long, 10 cm (3.93 in) deep Smallest iron: 8.5 cm (3.34 in) high, 15 cm (5.90 in) long, 8.5 cm (3.34 in) deep Condition: Overall good antique condition with signs of wear, oxidation, and one broken handle.
