Antique Chinese Qing Dynasty Repoussé Brass Silk Smoothing Pan Iron

This brass silk smoothing pan iron is an authentic piece of late 19th-century domestic utility and textile history. It features an elegant scalloped ruyi cloud-lobed basin bowl designed to safely hold hot charcoals or sand for precision garment pressing. The handle is heavily decorated with high-relief repoussé botanical scrolls, offering a beautiful cultural aesthetic while serving as a heat-dispersing grip.
