A Victorian Copper and Brass Bed Warmer - An antique long-handled bed warmer, commonly dating to the Victorian period, constructed primarily of hammered copper. The piece features a circular basin and hinged lid. The basin is affixed to a long, turned wooden handle via a tapered copper extension secured by visible rivets. The handle exhibits a dark, possibly ebonized or lacquered finish, consistent with examples referenced in the web intelligence report. The copper surfaces display an uneven, deep patina. The interior of the basin is heavily tarnished and retains remnants of historical use. A small hanging ring is present near the hinge point of the copper basin.
