Description
Hand warmer. European decorative arts, 18th century. Gilt bronze. Measures 12 cm x 15 cm x 28 cm. This elegant hand warmer consists of a semi-spherical bowl raised on a moulded base and fitted with a long, slightly curved handle for easy use. The metal surface has a smooth, polished finish, enhanced by the warm gilt hue, which lends refinement and visual presence. The balanced form and understated ornamentation reflect a utilitarian design typical of the 18th century, where functionality is combined with refined aesthetics. The piece demonstrates solid technical execution, with skillful metalwork and a homogeneous finish, reflecting the European artisanal tradition of the period. This object belongs to the realm of decorative arts and is a significant testament to domestic uses and the taste for elegant, well-proportioned objects of the 18th century.
