These flat irons have a long history that date back to the 1800s. During that time, the word "sad" meant "heavy," which was a fitting name for these irons. While they were compact, they were heavier with their solid iron bodies.

This vintage sad flat iron weighs 6lbs 14oz and measures 4" X 6" X 5" tall. It has a distressed, rust coated patina and would be perfect as kitchen decor, book end, cookbook page weight or simply as a doorstop. Paint the handle or the entire iron to create a beautiful home accent. So many options to customize this unique vintage flat iron and make it specifically yours!
