This is an antique-style cast iron sad iron / flat iron with a fixed cast iron handle and worn yellow paint. No maker’s mark is visible in the photos, so it is described by form and finish rather than attributed to a specific manufacturer or country of origin.
Material: cast iron, with a heavy solid feel typical of sad irons.
Paint/Finish: yellow paint, worn, with chips, scuffs, and dark surface spotting throughout.
Handle type: fixed cast iron handle; no removable handle is shown.
Form: pointed flat iron body with a triangular profile and rounded top handle arch.
Marks: no decipherable maker’s mark, number, label, or stamp in the photos.
Condition: good overall wear consistent with age and use, including paint loss and surface wear.
Originally made for pressing fabric, this piece now works well as primitive decor, a shelf display, or a rustic paperweight-style accent in an antique collection.
