The ones with bail I have found have been rather pricey. I got a very good deal on these. Both for ten pounds of my honey.

I'm certainly no expert, but I believe the ears on that put it conservatively into the late 19th century... I suspect older than that. I sure hope it doesn't become a planter! See pages 25 & 26 of Early American Cast Iron Holloware by John Tyler.

(referring to the 2nd one... can't see the 1st one well enough, but that one also looks to be 19th C to my limited knowledge.

They will not go the planter route. Thank you for the heads up on reference.
A lot of knowledge on this site.

Dan, good call. I have a DO with those ears, and someone dated it for me at about 1870's.
