A couple of weeks ago my husband and I went for a drive in the country and somehow ended up at Opelika, Alabama. And since we were in town already, we decided to make a quick stop at Angel's Antiques Mall. (note to self: there is no "quick stop" at Angel's. It's too big and there's too much to see.)
I found this rusted up, tin, what I thought was a jello mold from the 50's or 60's, until I realized...
...that it's a springform pan. So now I don't know if it's an old pan, or just one that somebody didn't care for properly and allowed to rust. I bought it anyway--at $2.00, it still qualifies as "thrifty", although I'm not sure if it qualifies as "vintage".
I did some research on line but I'm still not sure. I found some "non spring form" pans with molded bottoms that were listed as jello mold and cake pans. Then I found one new springform pan with that came with one flat bottom and one decorative bottom, but it had a much more modern flair, more like a bundt cake. Nothing similar to this.
So what do you think? Vintage too, or just thrifty?

I think it's both and also a great find...and a wonderful buy. I love the vintage jello molds and at first, I thought thats what it was..
ReplyDeleteI love the little cake pan.. Happy VTT,have a lovely weekend.
Vintage or not, it is very cool. Great find.
ReplyDeleteMaybe both? I wouldn't really know though, because I don't like to cook, and I've definitely never made a cake in one of those! Either way, it would look great sitting in any kitchen!
ReplyDeleteHappy VTT!

ReplyDeleteWonderful find! Will you use it?
ReplyDeleteI don't know if it's vintage, but I like it. Thanks for stopping by for a visit. I used Gorilla Glue Super Glue to stick to 2 pieces together. It works really fast.
