    Hi guys. I have this antique stove from my great grandma. It's about a foot and a half in length, probably from between 1880 and 1920. I have no clue whether it is a toy or salesman's sample and I can't find the company name online. I believe the company name is "IDA." Does anyone know what it is, when it was made, or who made it? Any information is appreciated.

      Welcome to CW. I think it looks like a sample but I'm no expert.

      Welcome to CW. It's hard to say, because they did make detailed working toy stoves for awhile.

      In a quick searchbi didn't see any IDA company..more research is needed. Definitely an interesting item.

      Here's some toy examples..
