This is a vintage old iron. The power source is a socket type, which I think is also rare. A small ceramic ironing board is included. I do not have a socket-type power outlet at my home, so I have not tested it for power. Also, as it is a very old item, I believe it would be best to refrain from actually using it for safety reasons. I would be happy if you would purchase it as an antique decoration. The box has dirt and torn parts. As it is an old item, there are scratches. Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive.
