A large 19th century brass coal scuttle made in the Arts & Crafts tradition. The hand-beaten finish and riveted handles give it a rustic, handmade character that sets it apart from later machine-made examples.
Height: 27cm
Base diameter: 29cm
Originally intended for carrying and storing coal by the fireplace, this piece now makes a striking decorative feature. It works beautifully as a rustic planter, as shown in the photos, or as fireside storage for kindling and logs.
Condition: Good antique condition with age-related wear, tarnish and patina throughout, consistent with its history. Solid and full of character.
A versatile piece of Arts & Crafts brassware — equally at home by the hearth or repurposed as a unique decorative accent in cottage, farmhouse, or eclectic interiors.
