Hand Forged Iron Cooking Stand

When you set out on a journey, whether alone or with a band of travelers, a sturdy cooking stand like this one proves its worth time and again. Forged by hand from blackened iron, this stand features a concentric circular platform supported by two shorter legs and a third, longer leg that keeps it steady over uneven ground. Set it above a small open fire, and its iron surface will hold a variety of pots and bowls, allowing you to prepare meals much like cooks did in medieval camps and village hearths. To guard the iron against rust, it’s wise to keep the stand lightly oiled after use, preserving the metal for many fires to come.

Fun Fact: In medieval times, cooking stands like this one were often used not only for cooking but also for warming water and even drying herbs,making them an essential tool at any hearth or campfire.
