Antique coal scuttle An antique coal scuttle, sometimes spelled coalscuttle and also called a coal hod, "coal bucket", or "coal pail", is a bucket-like container for holding a small, intermediate supply of coal convenient to an indoor coal-fired stove or heater. Coal scuttles are usually, but not always made of metal (this one has a metal liner) and shaped as a vertical cylinder or truncated cone, with the open top slanted for pouring coal on a fire. It may have one or two handles. Homes that don't use coal sometimes use a coal scuttle as a fireplace or hearth decoration. Antique coal scuttle word origin The word scuttle comes, via Middle English and Old English, from the Latin word Scutula, meaning a shallow pan. An alternative name, hod, derives from the Old French hotte, meaning "basket," and is also used in reference to boxes used to carry bricks or other construction materials. Antique coal scuttle.
