About this work

This skillet has a flared bowl, a round handle and three legs with feet in the shape of animal paws. In <i>The Squibb Ancient Pharmacy Catalogue</i> pharmaceutical historian George Urdang attributes the skillet to the 16 century of Rhenish origin. Many of the apothecary's tools such as this skillet were similar to cooking utensils found in homes.
