Fire Cage, Openwork Copper Lace, Middle East, 19th Century

From the Collection of Rolf Arnold Müller, who published a reference book, “ALTES KUPFER” (ISBN 978-3-033-08690-6)
Ember holder in shape of a globular cage, comprising a lid closing by a system of pressure by the brass transport handle, allowing embers to be passed securely from one room to another.
Openwork body rests on a pedestal base, it contained a cylindrical iron container, which we do not have. We imagine that the servant used a protective glove...
Pierced work is superb, very fine, mosque lamp quality...
Object has been used, but has reached us in good condition, nothing broken, no apparent missing, a little twisted here and there.
See our detailed photos.  Dimensions: 28cm x 25cm ...
