Round Steel or Cast Iron "Rossi" Pizzelle Iron in front of my "Mancini" Iron |
|
I bought this old "Rossi" Iron on eBay to add to the collection. It is very distinctive in that it is round with a very ornate inlay on each plate and the name "Rossi" in script on one of the plates. |

This is the inscription on the Pizzelle Iron Marked "PAT. J.C. 26.81. |
|
I think the J.C. has Religous overtones based on the cross on the inside. |
