Interesting collectors Item - Antique Chinese Brass Silk Iron - See Story and pictures below.

This item was made in Hong Kong and was used for ironing small silk items, such as cuffs and ribbons.  Either hot coals or hot sand was placed in the pan and then it was used to smooth out the silk without burning it.   There is a brass stand extension on the hand to steady the iron.  The length is 190mm.

Lovely collectors item.
