Description from the seller

Ancient Pot/Pan nicknamed "Bronzino" of more than 100 years with 3 legs.
The Bronzino was used to cook polenta (a staple dish of northern Italy, made from cornmeal with water and salt) hung from a hook in the fireplace.
Pot/Pan, Bronzino for the small fireplace, in hand-finished bronze by a craftsman from the town named Maculan, Chiuppano (Vicenza/Italy) in bronze, after a crack of its patina from its origin on one side of the pot.
To this day, with new traditions and lifestyles, it is used as a home décor piece, a flower holder or container for objects.
A history of more than 100 years!
Height with handles included: 21.50 cm.
Height without handles: 17.80 cm.
