No. 3 Cast Iron Skillet — Smoke Ring, Double Pour Spouts, “JG 3” Handle Mark
Offered is a vintage No. 3 cast iron skillet, marked “JG 3” on the handle base. This small skillet features double pour spouts, a smoke ring (heat ring) underside, and a teardrop-shaped open handle—all hallmarks of early-to-mid 20th-century American cast iron design. Measuring approximately 6.25 inches in diameter, it represents a traditional foundry style often seen in unbranded production from the 1930s–1950s.
Though unmarked by maker, its casting quality, smooth interior surface, and balanced proportions suggest manufacture by a regional U.S. foundry, possibly aligned with firms such as Wagner, Lodge, or Birmingham Stove & Range, which frequently produced unbranded skillets for hardware retailers. Compact and versatile, this size 3 pan is prized for its excellent heat retention and classic aesthetic—ideal for collectors or everyday cooks.
Condition:
Good condition overall, showing signs of honest use. The skillet sits flat with no cracks, chips, or repairs. Minor seasoning wear and surface patina are consistent with age and use. The interior remains smooth and well-seasoned, ready for continued culinary service.
Dimensions:
Height: 1.5 inches
Width (including handle): 10 inches
Diameter: 6.25 inches
