Antique brass food warmer, hand-worked and embossed, characterized by an elegant and refined style. It features a round body supported by a ring foot, a lid with a handle, and two handles for easy grip. The decoration, executed with the repoussé technique, embellishes the neck and body of the object with vegetal festoons, enhancing its aesthetic. The lid, which has small holes to allow hot steam to escape, is also adorned with repoussé work depicting vegetal scrolls and racemes. In the past, embers were placed inside the food warmer, while food to be kept warm was placed on top; the object could also be used as a foot warmer or hand warmer. This object of great antiquity and taste can also be used today as a centerpiece or flower holder by removing the lid. It is attributed to Tuscan craftsmanship from the late 17th century.
