Toy Sad Iron with wooden handle

Collectibles : Toys : Sad Irons

 

This sweet miniature sad iron measures 2 1/2" tall, 3 1/2" long and 1 7/8" at widest point. I purchased this from the estate of original owner. Someone had repainted the piece gold and silver which I carefully scraped off to reveal original finish. The majority of the paint has been removed, but there is some still in some of the pits and crevices. The wooden handle retains about 1/3 of it's original paint. The handle shows a lot of wear and tear due to use and age. This piece is very heavy.
