Details

A charming reminder of everyday life in 19th-century France, this antique enamelware chaufferette brings the romance of the French countryside into your home. Originally designed to hold glowing embers and provide warmth on chilly evenings, these elegant foot warmers were treasured household companions in French châteaux and during carriage travel.

Made of substantial cast iron with its original faded robin’s egg blue enamel finish, this beautiful example has the softly aged patina that only comes with time and use. Today, it makes a wonderful decorative accent—styled on a table, tucked into a country kitchen, or displayed with antique enamelware, linens, and garden finds. With its graceful form, wonderful color, and authentic history, this rare French antique adds a collected European touch wherever it is placed.
