Okay- I found what I thought could be the rosette and the literature in the 
original box says CROSS PIZELLE MAKER.  Checked internet pizelles are Italian

make their Azorean cookies.  

It's heavy and it says u can cook them. On the stove-so this kids me to think 
it is not what u were discussing in this thread.
