An antique brass coal scuttle c1880 complete with its original brush and poker. This small yet practical fireplace accessory features a classic lion’s head motif on the body, a symbol of strength and protection often found on late Victorian hearthware.
Made from solid brass with riveted joints and a swing handle, this piece was traditionally used for carrying coal, kindling or ash. The brush and poker slot neatly into the side handle rings, keeping the set together.
In good condition with age-related patina, interior tarnish and cosmetic wear as expected from use. No cracks or major dents.
Dimensions:
Scuttle: 22 x 18 x 14 cm
Brush: 25 x 7 x 7 cm
Poker: 34 x 3 x 1 cm
A decorative yet functional addition to any fireplace, ideal for both traditional and modern homes.
