This, French, cast iron clothes iron dates from the 1800's and was heated by hot coals placed inside.
Once a busy household tool it is now a decorative collectible home accent. Perfect as a bookend, door stopper, or keepsake box; as it has lots of space inside for jewellery, photos etc.
In genuine antique condition, the patina is simply stunning. There is no sign of recent rust, but it has a gnarly interior from years of being filled with hot coals; this just adds to its charm and authenticity. It is solid and sturdy, the hinges, to secure it shut and open for filling, still work perfectly. It will serve as a decorative item for many, many years to come.
The iron stands 19cms/ 7½" tall x 19cms/ 7½" long x 10cms/ 4" wide. It weighs 2.1 kgs/ 4.6lbs.
