How adorable are these little corn cobs? Colonial Corn Cobs would be dried to use the corn kernels in many homestead recipes. The cob shell would be saved for fire starters, whisk brooms, and various other repurposed needs. These little bowl fillers are hand poured with 100% blackened bees wax into a wrought iron mold and then delicately rubbed with cinnamon to preserve the vintage kernels.
