Antique Copper Bed Warmer with Turned Wood Handle - A traditional copper bed warmer featuring a circular hammered pan and a hinged, perforated lid. The lid is slightly domed and decorated with chased folk-style motifs, including a central stylized foliate or floral design. Small ventilation holes are pierced around the perimeter and integrated into the central decoration. The lid is attached to the pan by a substantial copper hinge secured with two visible rivets. The pan is fitted with a long, turned hardwood handle featuring a dark finish and a bulbous grip, joined to the pan by a copper ferrule. A stamped mark resembling the number 8 or two overlapping circles is visible on the hinge assembly (photo 1). A small rectangular mark is present on the lower right edge of the lid, consisting of a series of vertical lines or characters within a border, but it is not legible as a name or specific maker (photo 1). An orange adhesive price or inventory label is attached to the metal ferrule of the handle.
