Description:
Bed Warmer Foot Copper Brass Antique Copper Brass Vintage; foot warmers as they were called in the 1700’s and 1800’s solved the problem of cold feet of past generations. Some foot warmers held charcoal, others like this one held hot water. Copper, pottery, tin and even soapstone were all favored material to conduct the heat. The foot warmers were kept under the feet, then the legs and feet were tucked into a blanket, providing welcome warmth in cold carriages and even used in churches as well.
This English Victorian copper foot warmer measures 26 inches long from handle to handle, 14 ¾ inches wide the warmer itself measures 22 ¾ inches long and is 5 inches high. Striking with the deep patina on the copper and the brass fittings and brass handles for easy handling this is a truly magnificent piece.
