Early Victorian Brass Footman Trivet V. Heavy
We are offering for sale this large and very heavy solid brass Footman Trivet, which has a pierced top decorted with rows of quatrefoils and is raised on paw front legs. There are no makers marks visible, but the bolts attaching the front apron are marked CRANE, which we have discovered is the Crane Foundry in Wolverhampton. Joseph Crane took over the foundry in 1836 and registered his trademark of a crane in 1847, so we presume this item was made during this period.
As opposed to trivets, which were used in kitchens, footmen were for use in the parlour, to warm dishes, muffins etc. and to stand kettles on.
Composition Solid brass.
PriceSOLD Price confidential so please don't ask. Thank you. DimensionsWidth 18" 46cm Depth 12 1/2" 31cm Height 11" 28cm Weight12.33kg (Unpacked) Category Antique Metalware Date 1836-1845 Early Victorian Antiques Material Brass Origin English Condition Excellent with only very minor wear to the top surface consistent with use. There is a small manufacturing imperfection to one of the bars between two of the quatrefoils on the top right hand corner. A minute detail but mentioned for accuracy. Item code as237a319 Status Sold
