AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Old brass hammered coal bucket – Dinanderie – late 19th / early 20th century (approx. 1870–1910)
Antique hammered brass coal bucket, formerly used near fireplaces to transport and store coal or embers.

The object features artisanal dinanderie workmanship with a hammered geometric dotted motif on the upper part.
It is equipped with a mobile brass handle fixed by riveted fittings.

The bottom is fitted and brazed, with visible turning marks, which attests to traditional workmanship on a dinanderie lathe.

This type of item was common in bourgeois homes and interiors with a fireplace at the end of the 19th century.

Today, these pieces are often used as:
• decorative object
• planter
• cachepot
• fireplace accessory

Good overall condition for its age.

Presence of:
• antique patina
• traces of use inside related to coal use
• small oxidation and wear marks consistent with age
