Description: From the heart of the Pennsylvania Dutch farming communities nestled among the rolling hills of Lancaster County Pennsylvania Offered for sale: An antique blacksmith made wrought iron long handled fireplace ladle with a rat tail hearth hanging hook at its end. Most likely made in the 1800s -- possibly earlier. The handle extends under the bowl and is attached to it with three rivets that supported it securely as it ladled out countless hearty meals over its lifetime. Its enduring strength and longevity is a testament to the the craftsmanship of the blacksmith that made it. Approximate measurements: 19 inches Long 5 inch diameter bowl 1 and 1/2 inches deep. As to be expected, it has plenty of age appropriate surface wear and some oxidation. It is a beautiful primitive piece that would look wonderful hanging near your own hearth or in your farmhouse kitchen amongst other primitive utensils -- a reminder of days gone by to delight generations to come. Please review all the photographs carefully, as they really are the best description, to determine if this wonderful wrought iron ladle meets the criteria to join your collection. If you have questions, please send me a message through eBay and I will reply as quickly as I can. **************************************** Will ship the next business day after notification of payment from a smoke-free and pet-free home in Lancaster County Pennsylvania.
