Vintage Copper Helmet Coal Scuttle with Brass Lion-Head Mounts
$90.00
A small, traditional Dutch-style copper helmet coal scuttle featuring a classic asymmetric, high-lipped pouring spout and a rolled base rim. The body is crafted from smooth copper that has developed a deep, warm reddish-brown patina over time. An arched metal swing handle is riveted to the sides via cast brass Art Nouveau style lion-mask mounts, paired with a smaller fixed metal grip handle at the back.
Compact in scale at 18.5 cm tall, this piece works nicely as a decorative hearth accent or a holder for kindling and matches. The handle is adjustable if you wanted to use this for a planter.
