Description: For sale is an ANTIQUE 18th to early 19th century early American wooden carriage foot warmer box. It is used by early travelers to warm their frozen feet when traveling in bitter cold New England winter weather. This particular one has beautiful folky heart design on 4 sides. It is complete with the original wrought iron handle and the inner metal tray. Dark fine wood with all original surface and amazing patina. A genuine piece of colonial American life! It measures approximately 9” wide, 8” deep and 6” tall. The box is in decent antique condition. The wooden frame is somewhat loose at the corners which you may be able to see in the photos. If the item will be used in a display, this will be of no consequence, but if you move it a lot care needs to be taken as it's a bit loose. The trap door works properly and has no damage. Age appropriate surface wears and imperfections are to be expected. Please check photos from all angles for details. A great item to be added to your American folk art collection and to be displayed at your antique primitive/country home. Feel free to check out my other antique and collectible listings. I gladly combine shipping whenever practical.
