Old antique Art Deco "tea light" in metal and from the 1920s/30s

A very nice Art Deco object in which our forebears loved to brew their tea and keep it hot. This so-called old or antique tea light is heated at the bottom via a reservoir filled with methylated spirits and a “wick” which is then burned. Very simple but very effective. The height of the flame can be adjusted with a handle, wherein the high of the "wick" is controlled The device is made of chromium plated copper and is beautifully cut and shaped. The panes are equipped with red glass arched windows that can be removed. With the beautifully carved legs, it is a work of art to behold. The unit can be moved via a handle The size is approximately 12 x 12 x 12 cm. The tealight is complete and without flaws.
