It’s Been a Long Time - 66 Days

Nice finds. The wire handle appears to me like it originally had a wooden piece that has probably rotted/burnt off over time. I see this type of bent wire on tea kettles sometimes. Just a guess.
 
Would have had to have been made using a removable "core" that apparently wasn't applied properly.
 
I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with the lid. Yesterday I went back to the same place and found the bottom half. That certainly was a shock to find it 4 months later. I’ve been trying to think if the store had it the back the whole time? Or did the donor donate it 4 months apart?

This is about as clean as I can get it.
