This is a rare, authentic ERIE #8 Cast Iron Dutch Oven from the late 19th century manufactured by Seldon & Griswold (Erie, PA). This is a pre-Griswold piece featuring the classic \"ERIE\" trademark on the bottom and includes the matching 837 lid.
This set is structurally sound with no cracks, chips, or repairs. It sits level and the handle is secure. It does show signs of its 100+ years of history though, including some carbon buildup and minor interior pitting (divots) consistent with age.
Please be sure to look through the photos to see the condition for yourself before purchase. This set is a perfect candidate for a professional restoration or can be used as-is for a rustic kitchen display.
Note: Loose debris and \"gunk\" have been wiped out, but the piece remains in its original, \"found\" condition for the collector to season to their preference
