Beschrijving
These irons are part of a goffering set, thought to date from the early 19th century. The irons were heated to red-hot, then inserted into the barrel of a goffering iron stand to heat the outside of the barrel for use in crimping of cuffs and frills on clothes. They were formerly part of the collections at the Victoria & Albert Museum, but nothing is known of their origins before that.
