Sundry Roller Fluting Iron
This is an unusual roller fluter
with an interesting handle design. The bottom is a "marriage" but
the handle alone is worth the price.

N.R. Streeter's Magic Fluting Iron
Similar to the one above but with a different style trivet. The consumer could chose
and buy what ever combination she wanted. If
you have a Streeter Sensible or Magic box iron, and not a fluter or the trivet, you need this to
complete the set! Click for Pic Click for Pic Click for Pic Click for Pic

6" Crown Plaiter /
Iron
This is the rare mini size Crown Plaiter. The more typical
version that is seen is 10". Neither are common. Plaiting was a
thing done by people with too much time on their hands, or with enough money to
hire somebody else to perform the task for them. These devices were used
to put plaits, or small folds, in fabric such as drapery tops, bed surrounds, or
the bottom pieces on couches and chairs that keep dirt from
getting under there and give the cat a place to hide. My feeling is that if more people still plated and pleated the world would be a different place today. Whether for the better or worse is open to debate. I think the passing of this task was one of the primary reasons that the women's lib movement was able to catch on. They simply had to much spare time on their hands when they stopped doing chores like this so they started thinking about things like voting.
The overall condition is nice. There are no cracks or breaks. The counter weight and slugs you would heat are missing. The indexing pins are still there.

Rare 4 Piece Fluting Iron
This is a very rare fluting iron, and a very unusual design. The
bottom is a deep dish design that holds a slug. The top flutter plate
has a tab that fits into the base. The handle looks like those that
came with Dean or Streeter fluters, but the tabs on the end make it unique. Very nice
and complete!

Handled Fluting Iron
Here is a different one. This must have been designed for a
specific purpose given the design. The side is marked "Greenfield, Mass",
which was a large manufacturing center in the mid to late 19th century.
It was sitting with the Fox, but does not seem "right" for that.
A mystery!
