Offering for auction is an antique 19th‑century cast iron three‑leg cauldron/bean pot, identified by its prominent gate mark, dating it to before 1890 when most foundries produced unbranded hardware‑store iron. One character on the base - likely a “9” size mark - corresponds to the pot’s original capacity. These rugged tripod pots were used for open‑fire cooking and often hung from its wire bail handle. This example shows expected pitting, surface rust, and residue consistent with authentic 1800s iron. Today, pieces like this are prized for decorative displays, rustic décor, planters, or Halloween settings.
