Antique & Vintage
Flat Irons & Sad Irons

We are delighted to be able to offer for sale a great number of antique / vintage / and collectible sadirons and trivets originating from several great antique pressing iron collections we are helping consigners sell. 

One collection is focused on small and child-size sad or pressing irons, and includes many toy irons as well. Another includes antique and vintage irons from around the world, both large and small of all different styles.  In addition to collecting different sad irons another consigner's collection included a wide array of antique laundry and washing related collectibles that you will find listed on the Antique Laundry page and on the several General Store / Advertising Pages,  as well as the  Americana Pages whose links are in the white column to the left.  Be sure to visit those pages as well.  

Our consigners of these collections have shared great memories of how and where different irons were acquired, and how pleased they are that the sad irons they so lovingly collected and preserved are now going to find homes with another new generation of collectors.

Please keep in mind that although it may seem like antique sad irons are common and easily found and that we have an awful lot of them for sale here, most of these antique irons are by no means frequently found or widely available these days.  These pressing iron collections were assembled over decades---for example the Lloyd collection was begun in the 1950's---and when these irons are gone we will not have more of this caliber until the next collection is offered to us to sell.  

You will find an incredible variety of antique pressing irons offered by visiting all of the different iron pages and the iron pages we call back pages you will go to when you click the titles below!     

Antique Sadirons / Flat Irons

We are offering an assortment of antique irons large and small that are sure to stand out in any collection.  Take a good look at the following irons.  They are not all your garden-variety doorstops or bookends, although there are some for that. 

Many of the following irons have unusual and interesting functions, markings, or design features that set them apart from the norm and from what you typically find these days.  Look for sadirons with unusual designs and interesting logos from varied makers, as well as irons with unusual patented features such as unique handle mechanisms or heat storage ideas.
