He'd filched it during his first month of work in the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts office. One of his superiors, Oliver Barnaby, had discovered it in a raid. The iron had been enchanted by a disgruntled witch neighbor of a pompous businessman, and she'd set it to behave as a teapot. It dampened clothes, instead of flattening them out, and whistled obnoxiously every half hour. The iron, after being rehabilitated by Barnaby, was plopped onto Arthur's desk with the command to "File this away, Weasley."
"But what does it do, Oliver? I mean- I mean what is it?" Arthur had asked, understandably confused: it had some sort of flashing light, and a long pronged snake hung off one end of it. "What is it for?"
Barnaby had just laughed and swept away to his desk, but Arthur was undeterred. Later that evening, he snuck the iron to the back shed and set it on a shelf behind a self-seeding flowerpot.
In a few short years, the shed became Arthur's "Muggle Museum," and the flowerpot was nothing but a distant memory.
