This home decor item certainly takes us back in time. Can you imagine heating this iron over a hot stove or flame then ironing your clothes, sheets, and curtains with it? Neither can I!
I can imagine it holding recipes or a stack of freshly rolled linen napkins in place on a shelve in my kitchen. I can also imagine it as a paperweight or bookend in my office. I’m sure if I gave it enough thought, I could imagine lots of uses. I just can’t imagine using it as an iron.
