Description: Griswold #5 cast iron skillet with the iconic large block logo. Manufactured between 1930-1939. Measures 8 inches wide and 1 7/8 inches tall. Weighs in at only 2 pounds 3 ounces. Very good restored condition with no cracks. Sits nice on a gas or electric coil cooktop but would not be appropriate for a glass cooktop due to a wobble. The exterior surface is excellent with a crisp, clear logo and lettering. There are some grinder marks on the exterior sidewalls from some aggressive cleaning in the past (Not me :) The interior cooking surface is nice and smooth with typical marks from age and use. About Cast Iron Archaeology: My name is Tony and I am Cast Iron Archaeology. Restoring vintage and antique cast iron cookware is my passion. When I'm not working my full time job as a RN at the local hospital, I am at home in my shop restoring, cleaning and seasoning cast iron. For me this is a labor of love. The difference between my cast iron and the others out there is the attention to detail. First, I strip it down to the bare iron with my all natural process. Then, I season each piece using a combination of beeswax and natural oils. Seasoning takes one hour at a time in a 450 degree oven and is repeated as many times as it takes to achieve that nice glossy coating. The entire process takes about a week to complete. This is a professional restoration done right from start to finish and I would put my cast iron up against any you can find online or anywhere else. To back it up, I offer 30 day free returns. Thank you for considering a product from Cast Iron Archaeology! GENERAL DISCLAIMER: Please know that although these pieces of cast iron cookware are restored, they are vintage. Some as old as 120 plus years. And they have seen much use. They are not perfect. They will have utensil marks and small scrapes and nicks. We try to point out any significant abnormalities or damage in our listings. When it is stated that the skillet is flat, it means that there is no bow, wobble or spin. It is very rare that a vintage cast iron skillet will have absolutely no movement on a glass surface. Most were not perfect coming out of the foundry. There will likely be some small amount of movement on a flat surface. If the skillet is absolutely perfect I will definitely point that out :)
