Empire Period Sheet Metal And Brass Warming Dish – Early 19th Century

Rare portable stove in painted sheet metal and brass, formerly used to keep plates and dishes warm. Embers were installed in the lower part, where holes for ventilation can be seen. This cylindrical-shaped domestic piece of furniture opens with two doors revealing two shelves. A very beautiful cut glass handle adorns one of these doors. On each side of this stove, a large brass ball allows transport. The lower part has a large molded brass plinth and the upper part is surrounded by a brass gallery forming a basin.
