Spade Shaped Little Irons
with Numbers and Letters
Strap
Handle #1 Sad Iron
This is a nice looking iron. These were marketed as both child's irons
/ toys and as lace irons, and the number was used to indicate the size
or weight relative to the other irons that were offered. From the look I assume it is
English and dates from the late 19th century. A nice example!

D X Miniature Cross Hatch Design Iron This tiny little iron
could well be called a salesman sample as I have had the full size model marked
exactly the same. It still has a lot of the original nickel finish, and
the cast handle is a nice touch. Very sweet!

Sad / Pressing Iron with Unusual Mark This small iron has a great form.
It is only 3" long. The front is rounded at the base, but then the top
decoration is a sharper and more pointed. The name is hard to make out,
but the logo is similar to that used by Kenrick. Interestingly the number
1 is sideways! Different!
