EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of a trio of irons, as showcased in a catalog from 1923. The vintage scene transports us to a bygone era, where the art of ironing held a significant place in every household. The central iron, a patent gas iron, represents the latest innovation in ironing technology of the 1920s. With its sleek design and portable gas tank, it offered the convenience of continuous heating, making ironing a more efficient process. The detachable hose and regulator allowed for precise temperature control, ensuring perfectly pressed clothes. To the left, a flat iron with a galvanised stand is displayed. This traditional iron, with its flat, smooth base, was commonly used for ironing various fabrics. The galvanised stand not only protected the iron from rust but also kept it upright and ready for use. Lastly, a convex polishing iron graces the right side of the image. This specialty iron, with its curved base, was designed specifically for polishing shoes, hats, and other leather items. The unique shape allowed for easy access to curved surfaces, ensuring a flawless shine. This charming photograph offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the importance of ironing in the daily lives of people during the 1920s. The various irons, each with their distinct purpose, highlight the evolution of ironing technology and the attention to detail that went into maintaining a well-pressed wardrobe.
