Antique Wafax copper bed warmers also known as a "hot water bottles" are classic examples of British domestic metalware from the late 19th to mid-20th century. Unlike the older, long-handled "warming pans" that held hot coals, Wafax warmers were designed to be filled with boiling water. The Wafax brand is well-regarded by collectors for its sturdy construction and "Old World" aesthetic. This copper hot water bottle has a few dents, adding character to this vintage piece. Dimensions: 21cm diameter x 10cm (h)
