🛠 About the product / Function

This cast iron flat iron is a classic example of a so-called “sad iron”, traditionally heated on a stove or open fire. Thanks to the heavy cast iron, it retained heat for a long time, making it effective for ironing clothes.

Today, these irons are mainly appreciated as decorative objects. The raw texture, visible wear, and warm rust tones give it an authentic and timeless character.

🏭 Manufacturer & history

The iron is marked with the letters “DP” and a rose. This type of marking was often used by smaller European foundries. Although the exact origin cannot be determined with certainty, the design suggests a production period from the late 19th to early 20th century.
