Description:
WE JUST PURCHASED A VERY NICE COLLECTION OF VERY EARLY 18TH CENTURY AMERICAN IRONWARE FROM A NEH HAMPSHIRE COLLECTOR. THIS COLLECTOR BOUGHT ONLY THE BEST FORM AND WONDERFUL OLD SURFACES. THIS PIECE IS FROM THE SAME COLLECTION OS THE PILGRIM TASTING SPOON WE HAVE LISTED THIS WEEK AS WELL AS THE RARE FISH FORK AND THE WONDERFUL HEART FORK WE SOLD LAST WEEK.
A MUSEUM QUALITY 18TH CENTURY DOUBLE HEART Decorated Wrought Iron American Roasting Fork, New England, Circa 1780-1820 in great old surface and in a wonderful and rare small size with ABSOLUTE BEST DOUBLE OPEN HEART HANDLE, TWO TINES, DELICATE PIG TAIL END ALL IN NICE OLD SURFACE AND PATINA.
THIS FORK IS ONE OF THE BEST YOU WILL EVER SEE.
Great surface wear and wonderful hand forged tool marks throughout.
Most of the HEART DECORATED iron tools and utensils were usually made for a young women\'s dowry. This fact is discussed in George Neumann\'s book, \"Early American Antique Country Furnishings\" as well as in \"Wrought Iron in Winterthur\". Often the bride would have these items made for either her dowry or receive them as wedding presents. They were primarily made for show purposes and display.
A great early and diminutive example that shows only minor wear and use.
The heart decorated forks are extremely rare compared to the shovels and spoons.
Great small size being only 16 1/2\" long.
Typical wear and imperfections with age.
Low starting Price and .
