Early Figural Cast Iron Sprinklers & More

Cast Iron Turtle Water Sprinkler    This super piece of figural cast iron has a great look and feel to it with original patina.  Unusual lawn sprinklers are a favorite with the figural crowd as well as the cast iron and the more focused  and specific sprinkler collectors.   These unusual pieces come in a variety of forms and in the coming weeks we will be adding a few more animal related examples  as well as some other  interesting mechanical ones.        Excellent ...$495.00        SOLD

Alligator Cast Iron Sprinkler    We love figural cast iron, and these early and exquisite pieces from near the turn of the century are amongst our favorites.  This cast iron figural sprinkler has a wonderful rich patina and will display very well in almost any setting, be it the garden, near the pool, entry, or anywhere else that strikes your fancy.          Excellent ...$395.00       SOLD

Cast Squirrel Sprinkler   This interesting and rare sprinkler is made of lead or some similar heavy non-magnetic metal as a magnet does not stick---perhaps it is gold.....but I think not.  The original condition is super including the original gold wash finish.  Overall he stands just about 8" tall, and there is no damage, cracking, chipping or other problems common to alloy or white metal pieces.  He is definitely quality-constructed, very realistic looking, and a super figural piece.  Hook him up at the rear and a fine watering pattern comes out of the series of holes in the top of his head.  Use him or display him, he will be a welcome addition to almost any decor.          Excellent ...$595.00    SOLD

Blake Patent Figural Alligator Nut Cracker  The Blake Nut Cracker is by the same fellow who held the first patent in America for a corkscrew.  He made at least two different versions of his nutcracker, and the plain Jane non-figural version was well received and is considered quite common, as you can find one if not more at just about every antique show that you go to.  That is not the case with this, his figural alligator version, which must have been produced in very limited quantities as this is only the third one I have seen in many years of looking.  The condition of this example is excellent, and is has a nice even / smooth patina that only comes with 100+ years of careful storage and use.       

Excellent ..... $395.00        SOLD!
