Crescent Foundry Company, based in St. Louis, Missouri, operated from 1901 to approximately 1937. There are no cracks, breaks, etc. Well used, but clean piece, so no specific issues to mention, but there may be a casting flaw, utensil marks, scratches, dis colorization, staining, minor pitting, etc. Has not been used since the restoration process. Has little to no movement on a hard/ flat/ level surface. I’ve restored a lot of cast iron cookware. All go through lye to remove any crud, organic material, seasoning, etc. Then I run them through the electrolysis process to remove any corrosion, rust, impurities, etc. They are scrubbed by hand using dish liquid, stainless steel scouring pads, stainless steel brushes, and magic erasers under cold water to bring them back to the bare metal finish. Finally, all pieces are run through three rounds of seasoning using a blend of organic grape seed oil, organic sunflower oil and natural beeswax. I use pool noodles for packaging. Please look at my feedback on packaging. Please look at all photos for condition as they are the description and ask any questions.
