Hard-to-Find
5" Swan Iron The 5" swan iron is always a favorite of not
just iron collectors but anyone who appreciates the beauty and rarity of
figural cast iron antiques. Authentic 5" swans don't come up for sale
very often---there are oftentimes reproductions of these irons offered up on
ebay and elsewhere on the Internet, but there is no comparison between those
repops and an original. This example is guaranteed old and authentic.
As with many of the early ones, this swan suffered the all-too-common fate
of a broken beak somewhere in its past. Our consignor had it
professionally restored a number of years ago, and the repair is barely
noticeable unless pointed out.

Authentic Early Little Swan Irons Most collectors of child-size irons are aware
that the little swan irons have been widely reproduced. These two swan
irons are guaranteed old and original. They have the sure sign of
authenticity---the "runner" or flattened bump on the chest that
authenticates the early casting process. They have good detailing and
nice smooth bottoms. These beautiful little swan irons measure 2.5
inches and 2.75 inches and are complete with their matching little trivets.

Small Swan Iron with Original
Paint
Here's an antique Swan iron that is sure to
stand out amongst the rest of the flock! It is so rare to find swans with
traces of their original paint. On this 2 3/4" example not only is there
gold on the swan itself, but it even retains gold on its matching trivet.
With good detail in the feathers and face, and with the well-defined break
mark on the chest, there is no doubt as to it's authenticity and its age.
You're guaranteed to fall in love with this one!

2 1/4" Swan
Iron on Trivet One of the best-loved styles of little irons,
the Swan iron was made in many sizes and variations, and collecting all of
the different ones can be a lot of fun. Although the swan has been
reproduced, it is not difficult to distinguish the old from the new.
This example exhibits the characteristic sign of authenticity---the mold
break mark on the chest. It also exhibits nicely detailed feathers
and clearly delineated eye and beak markings. Sitting on a matching
trivet it is ready to join the rest of the flock!
