Help Identifying Brand

I picked this up at a yard sale and reseasoned it. There are no markings on it. Any idea what brand this is?

Maybe it doesn't have one? people might slap a logo on everything nowadays but it's never been a requirement for a product to be quality. Looks like a nice cast iron to me

For a very long time, metal workers have been leaving markings on their works. As in, thousands of years.

Of course they have been, but we have been mass producing simple items like these for well over a century or two. I'm simply saying I wouldn't be surprised if this specific style of pan was sold/manufactured by more than one brand if not unbranded altogether.

Unmarked pieces are also not unheard of. It could have been a white label product that would have been sold by a retailer under a store brand's name.

Take notice that I will not accept any copper from you that is not of fine quality.

Most likely you're looking at a pan that is 200 to 100 years old small production. I'm guessing sand casted based on the handle.

The rim is an uneven thickness and has some jagged spots which made me think it might have been cast by hand.

Probably impossible to know without some markings, absurd media reach, or access to a museum expert.

This looks exactly like the set my grandparents gifted me. They were in a large wooden box from Costco that was bought YEARS ago! Came with a cast iron skillet and 2 more smaller cast iron pans. I would bet that it's from this set.

Interesting, do you have photos?
