Why it’s here

Everything in the Homestedt Antiques collection was sourced from rural barns, markets, and dealers across the North East of the United States, England, and Sweden, the same regions that have inspired much of what Homestedt does. These are objects that have already lived a life. They were made by hand, used daily, and have arrived here still doing what they were always meant to do. We collect these pieces because they show the kind of character that comes from decades of use, the evidence of the maker’s hand, and a beauty that adds texture, history and warmth to a home.

What you’re seeing in this collection is just a small selection of our antiques. For the full range of our latest pieces, we recommend a visit to our North Branch, NY location where you’ll find an ever changing collection of pieces that have caught our eye.

About this piece

The stoneware bundt pan is a distinctly American object, a form that emerged from the German-American baking tradition of the Midwest, adapted for the American kitchen and produced in stoneware for its even heat distribution and durability. The dark glaze on this example has a depth and richness that speaks to its age. Still functional as a baking vessel, and beautiful enough to leave on a counter or shelf when not in use.

Condition

Good antique condition. Dark glaze intact and well-preserved. Shows natural age-related patina consistent with use.

Care & display

Suitable for light baking use, hand wash only with mild soap and warm water, dry immediately. The dark stoneware looks particularly well displayed on open shelving or a kitchen counter.
