It adds a touch of class to any fireplace with its gilded finish and domed top. Yes, it has a Rococo Revival style, but it was most likely made in the mid 70's based on its condition. It is larger than most coal scuttles that were in France and England during the turn of the century. The outer surface has been hand painted with a thick enamel paint, and it is similiar to some of the toleware done in the late 50's and early 60's. The weight is heavier than most and the best feature is that the construction includes mounted handles. The scuttle is decorated all over with floral swags that give it a lot of style and a Venetian Flair. See less
