This is a mid 18th Century English Brass and Iron Fireside Pot Trivet.

It would have been used freestanding on a hearth to take a pot, pan or kettle from the fire. It also has 2 front prongs which could have hooked over the fire grate grill to hold the vessel closer and hotter by the fire.

Skillfully crafted and decorative pieces such as this would not have been intended for the utility of the scullery or kitchen, but for standing proudly in the main fireplace of the Georgian home, probably for drinks that were to be kept warm such as hot chocolate or warmed ale which were very popular at this time

It has a beautifully designed fretwork brass top, and stands on a tall tripod base of stretchered wrought iron legs of 'cabriole' shape.
It has it's original turned yew wood handle, and would date to about 1730.

In very good original condition. Some of the fine brass links of the fretwork have worn through but it remains solid and firm throughout.

An excellent example of early English Georgian antique metal ware.
