About the Item
Lovely example of the Victorians design at its best.
A rare nautilus or shell shaped coal scuttle or purdonium.
Purdonium was a trade name for a type of coal-box or coal-scuttle that had a removable metal lining. This allowed the messy and noisy work of refilling it to take place away from the firesides of the nineteenth-century middle classes, while keeping the elegant outer box in pristine condition.
